Answer:

The magnitude of the force that each wire exerts on the other will increase by a factor of two.

Explanation:

force on parallel current carrying wire, F = BILsinθ

where;

B is the strength of the magnetic field

L is the length of the wire

I is the magnitude of current on the wire

θ is the angle of inclination of the wire

Assuming B, L and θ is constant, then F ∝ I

F = kI

\frac{F_1}{I_1} = \frac{F_2}{I_2}

When the amount of current is doubled in one of the wires, lets say the second wire;

\frac{F_1}{I_1} = \frac{F_2}{2I_1} \\\\F_2 = \frac{2F_1I_1}{I_1} \\\\F_2 =2F_1

Also, if will double the amount of current on the first wire, then

F₁ = 2F₂

Therefore, the magnitude of the force that each wire exerts on the other will increase by a factor of two.

A girl rides her scooter to school, a total distance of 4.5km. She has to slow down twice to cross busy streets, but overall the
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

6.93 km/h

Explanation:

To calculate her average speed, we need the "speed" formula, which is:

average speed = distance / time

You plug in your numbers and it will give you the answer.

Speed = 4.5km/0.65hr

           = 6.923 km/h

A tennis player strikes a tennis ball from underneath with her racket. The ball is sent straight up with an initial velocity of
Stels [109]
So the acceleration of gravity is 9.8 m/s so that’s how quickly it will accelerate downwards. You can use a kinematic equation to determine your answer. We know that initial velocity was 19 m/s, final velocity must be 0 m/s because it’s at the very top, and the acceleration is -9.8 m/s. You can then use this equation:

Vf^2=Vo^2+2ax

Plugging in values:

A train moving at a constant speed on a surface inclined upward at 10.0° with the horizontal travels a distance of 400 meters in
Amiraneli [1.4K]
If the velocity of the train is v=s/t, where s is the distance and t is time, then v=400/5=80m/s. To get the vertical component of the velocity we need to multiply the velocity v with a sin(α): Vv=v*sin(α), where Vv is the vertical component of the velocity and α is the angle with the horizontal. So:

Vv=80*sin(10)=80*0.1736=13.888 m/s. 

So the vertical component of the velocity of the train is Vv=13.888 m/s.

An 89 kg man drops from rest on a diving board −3.1 m above the surface of the water and comes to rest 0.5 s after reaching the
OLga [1]

To solve this problem we will use the linear motion kinematic equations, for which the change of speed squared with the acceleration and the change of position. The acceleration in this case will be the same given by gravity, so our values would be given as,

m= 89 kg\\x = 3.1 m\\t = 0.5s\\a = g = 9.8m/s^2

Through the aforementioned formula we will have to

v_f^2-v_i^2 = 2ax

The particulate part of the rest, so the final speed would be

v_f^2 = 2gx

v_f=\sqrt{2(9.8)(3.1)}

v_f = 7.79m/s

Now from Newton's second law we know that

F = ma

Here,

m = mass

a = acceleration, which can also be written as a function of velocity and time, then

F = m\frac{dv}{dt}

Replacing we have that,

F = (89)\frac{7.79}{0.5}

F = 1386.62N

Therefore the force that the water exert on the man is 1386.62
