Answer:

The magnetic field at mid point between two parallel wires is 1.2 x 10⁻⁵ T

Explanation:

Given;

current in the first wire, I₁ = 10 A

current in the second wire, I₂ = 20 A

distance between the two wires, d = 1.0 m

Magnetic field at mid point between two parallel wires is calculated as;

B = \frac{\mu_o I_1}{2\pi r} + \frac{\mu_o I_2}{2\pi r} \\\\B =  \frac{\mu_o }{2\pi r}(I_1 +I_2)

where;

r is the midpoint between the wires, = 0.5 m

μ₀ is the permeability of free space, = 4π x 10⁻⁷

B =  \frac{\mu_o }{2\pi r}(I_1 +I_2)\\\\B =   \frac{4\pi*10^{-7} }{2\pi *0.5}(10 +20)\\\\B =  \frac{4\pi*10^{-7} *30}{2\pi *0.5}\\\\B = 1.2 *10^{-5} \ T

Therefore, the magnetic field at mid point between two parallel wires is 1.2 x 10⁻⁵ T

The current in a toaster is 20 amps, and its voltage is 200 volts. What is the resistance in the toaster?
alukav5142 [94]
<span>Ohm's law deals with the relation between voltage and current in an ideal conductor. It states that: Potential difference across a conductor is proportional to the current that pass through it. It is expressed as V=IR. 

V = IR
200 = 20R
R = 10 ohms</span>

What is the difference between flashing point, boiling point and melting point​
sp2606 [1]
<h3><u>Answer and explanation;</u></h3>
  • <u>Melting point</u> is defined as the temperature at which solid and liquid phases are in equilibrium. It is the temperature at which a solid changes state from solid to liquid at atmospheric pressure.
  • <u>Boiling poin</u>t is the temperature at which the vapour pressure of a liquid is equal to the external pressure. It is the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid into a gas.
  • <u>The flash point </u>of a flammable liquid or volatile liquid is the lowest temperature at which it can form an ignitable mixture in air. At this temperature the vapor may cease to burn when the source of ignition is removed.

(a) what will an object weigh on the moon's surface if it weighs 100 n on earth's surface
juin [17]
We know the equation

weight = mass × gravity

To work out the weight on the moon, we will need its mass, and the gravitational field strength of the moon.
Remember that your weight can change, but mass stays constant.

So using the information given about the earth weight, we can find the mass by substituting 100N for weight, and we know the gravity on earth is 10Nm*2 (Use the gravitational field strength provided by your school, I am assuming yours in 10Nm*2)

Therefore,

100N = mass × 10
mass= 100N/10
mass= 10 kg

Now, all we need are the moon's gravitational field strength and to apply this to the equation

weight = 10kg × (gravity on moon)
