<span>he theory states that Earth's outermost layer, the lithosphere, is broken into 7 large, rigid pieces called plates: the African, North American, South American, Eurasian, Australian, Antarctic, and Pacific plates. Several minor plates also exist, including the Arabian, Nazca, and Philippines plates. The plates are all moving in different directions and at different speeds</span>

Two parallel wires separated by a distance of 0.6 m each carry current in the same direction. One wire is carrying a current of

mart [117]

Answer:

The value is $B = 3.33 *10^{-6} \ T$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The distance of separation is $d = 0.6 \ m$

The current on the one wire is $I_1 = 9 \ A$

The current on the second wire is $I_2 = 4 \ A$

Generally the magnitude of the field exerted between the current carrying wire is

$B = B_1 - B_2$

Here $B_1$ is the magnetic field due to the first wire which is mathematically represented as

$B_1 = \frac{\mu_o * I_1 }{2 \pi * d_1}$

Here $d_1$ is the distance to the half way point of the separation and the value is

$d_1 = 0.3 \ m$

$B_2$ is the magnetic field due to the first wire which is mathematically represented as

$B_2 = \frac{\mu_o * I_2 }{2 \pi * d_2}$

Here $d_2$ is the distance to the half way point of the separation and the value is

$d_2 = 0.3 \ m$

This means that $d_1 = d_2 = a = 0.3$

$B = \frac{\mu_o * I_1 }{2 \pi * d_1} - \frac{\mu_o * I_2 }{2 \pi * d_2}$

=> $B = \frac{\mu_o * (I_1 - I_2)}{2 \pi *0.3 }$

=> $B = \frac{ 4\pi * 10^{-7} * (9- 4)}{2 * 3.142 *0.3 }$

=> $B = 3.33 *10^{-6} \ T$

How is it technically correct to say that a car making a u-turn can have a constant speed but cannot have a constant velocity?

saw5 [17]

During the "U" part of the turn, the car would follow an approximately circular path, and if it's moving at a constant speed, it would have to accelerate toward the center of the circle in order to change its direction.
