An unusual lightning strike has a vertical portion with a current of −400 A downwards. The Earth's magnetic field at that locati

on is parallel to the ground and has a magnitude of 30 μT. Calculate, in N, the force exerted by the Earth's magnetic field on the 25-m-long current.

4 0

Answer:

0.3 N

Explanation:

i = 400 A

B = 30 x 10^-6 T

L = 25 m

Force due the current carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field

F = B i L SinФ

where, Ф be the angle between length vector and magnetic field vector

F = 30 x 10^-6 x 400 x 25 = 0.3 N

Why is the metric system used globally, but we use the US customary units?
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

The biggest reasons the U.S. hasn't adopted the metric system are simply time and money. When the Industrial Revolution began in the country, expensive manufacturing plants became a main source of American jobs and consumer products.

Mary spots Bill approaching the dorm at a constant rate of 2.00 m/s on the walkway that passes directly beneath Mary's window, 1
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

Mary will have to wait for 63.2 seconds

Explanation:

Time required for the apple to drop from a height of 17.0 m above the ground to 1.65 m above the ground is given by the formula below:

t = √2h/g  where h is height through which the object falls, g is acceleration due to gravity

h = 17.0 - 1.65 = 15.35 m

g = 9.8 m/s²

t = √(2 * 15.35/9.8)

t = 1.77 s or approximately 1.8 s

Time taken for bill to get to the point below Mary's window is given below;

time taken = distance/velocity

distance = 130 m; velocity = 2.0 m/s

time taken by Bill = 130/2.0 = 65 s

Therefore, Mary will have to wait for (65 - 1.8) s = 63.2 seconds

We can model a pine tree in the forest as having a compact canopy at the top of a relatively bare trunk. Wind blowing on the top
frez [133]

We need to consider for this exercise the concept Drag Force and Torque. The equation of Drag force is

F_D = c_D A \frac{\rho V^2}{2}

Where,

F_D = Drag Force

c_D = Drag coefficient

A = Area

\rho= Density

V = Velocity

Our values are given by,

c_D = 0.5 (That is proper of a cone-shape)

A = 9m^2

\rho = 1.2Kg/m^3

V = 6.5m/s

Part A ) Replacing our values,

F_D = 0.5*9*\frac{1.2*6.5^2}{2}

F_D = 114.075N

Part B ) To find the torque we apply the equation as follow,

\tau = F*d

\tau = (114.075N)(7)

\tau = 798.525N.m
