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

A 12,000kg. railroad car is traveling at +2m/s when it
ivann1987 [24]

<u>Answer:</u>

The final velocity of the two  railroad cars is 1.09 m/s

<u>Explanation:</u>

Since we are given that the two cars lock together it shows that the collision is inelastic in nature. The final velocity due to inelastic collision is given by  

\mathrm{V}=\frac{V 1 M 1+V 2 M 2}{M 1+M 2}

where

V= Final velocity

M1= mass of the first object in kgs = 12000

M2= mas of the second object in kgs = 10000

V1= initial velocity of the first object in m/s = 2m/s

V2= initial velocity of the second object in m/s = 0 (given at rest)

Substituting the given values in the formula we get

V = 2×12000 + 0x100012000 + 10000= 2400022000= 1.09 m/s  

\mathrm{V}=\frac{2 \times 1200+0 \times 1000}{12000+10000}=\frac{24000}{22000}=1.09 \mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}

Which is the final velocity of the two  railroad cars

Two long parallel wires carry currents of 3.35 A and 6.99 A . The magnitude of the force per unit length acting on each wire is
Nady [450]

Answer:

244mm

Explanation:

I₁ = 3.35A

I₂ = 6.99A

μ₀ = 4π*10^-7

force per unit length (F/L) = 6.03*10⁻⁵N/m

B = (μ₀ I₁ I₂ )/ 2πr .........equation i

B = F / L ..........equation ii

equating equation i & ii,

F / L = (μ₀ I₁ I₂ )/ 2πr

Note F/L = B = F

F = (μ₀ I₁ I₂ ) / 2πr

2πr*F = (μ₀ I₁ I₂ )

r = (μ₀ I₁ I₂ ) / 2πF

r = (4π*10⁻⁷ * 3.35 * 6.99) / 2π * 6.03*10⁻⁵

r = 1.4713*10⁻⁵ / 6.03*10⁻⁵

r = 0.244m = 244mm

The distance between the wires is 244m

( Image is 6 C carbon with the numbers 12.011 under it ) According to the image, the atomic mass of carbon is 12.011. How is the
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

B. By adding the number of protons and the number of neutrons

Explanation:

The atomic mass is determined by adding the number of protons and neutrons in an atom. An atom is made up of three fundamental particles: Electrons, Protons and Neutrons.

The protons and neutrons occupy a central region in an atom known as the nucleus. The nucleus is positively charged and mass concentrated.

If we compare the relative masses of the subatomic particles, the masses of protons and neutrons would be 1 and that of an electron would be 1/1840. This shows that the mass of electrons are negligible.

In order to ascertain atomic mass, we therefore add the number of protons and neutrons together. This is how we arrive at 12.011 as the value of the atomic mass of C and for other elements.

The atomic mass is also known as the mass number.
