Two long, parallel wires are separated by a distance of 3.30 cm. The force per unit length that each wire exerts on the other is

5.00×10−5 N/m, and the wires repel each other. The current in one wire is 0.620 A.
a. What is the current in the second wire?
b. Are the two currents in the same direction or in opposite directions?

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

Distance between two parallel long wires=r=3.3 cm=\frac{3.3}{100}=0.033m

1 m=100 cm

\frac{F}{l}=5\times 10^{-5} N/m

I_1=0.62 A

a.We have to find the current in the second wire.

We know that

\frac{F}{l}=\frac{2\mu_0I_1I_2}{4\pi r}

Using the formula

5\times 10^{-5}=\frac{2\times 10^{-7}\times 0.62\times I_2}{0.033}

Where \frac{\mu_0}{4\pi}=10^{-7}

I_2=\frac{5\times 10^{-5}\times 0.033}{2\times 10^{-7}\times 0.62}

I_2=13.3 A

Hence, the current in the second wire=13.3 A

b.We are given that the wires repel each other.When the current carrying in the wires in opposite direction then, the wires repel to each other.

Hence,the two  currents in opposite directions.

A 100-kg spacecraft is in a circular orbit about Earth at a height h = 2RE .
maria [59]

To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the conservation of the Gravitational Force and the centripetal force by equilibrium,

F_g = F_c

\frac{GmM}{r^2} = \frac{mv^2}{r}

Where,

m = Mass of spacecraft

M = Mass of Earth

r = Radius (Orbit)

G = Gravitational Universal Music

v = Velocity

Re-arrange to find the velocity

\frac{GM}{r^2} = \frac{v^2}{r}

\frac{GM}{r} = v^2

v = \sqrt{\frac{GM}{r}}

PART A ) The radius of the spacecraft's orbit is 2 times the radius of the earth, that is, considering the center of the earth, the spacecraft is 3 times at that distance. Replacing then,

v = \sqrt{\frac{(6.67*10^{-11})(5.97*10^{24})}{3*(6.371*10^6)}}

v = 4564.42m/s

From the speed it is possible to use find the formula, so

T = \frac{2\pi r}{v}

T = \frac{2\pi (6.371*10^6)}{4564.42}

T = 8770.05s\approx 146min\approx 2.4hour

Therefore the orbital period of the spacecraft is 2 hours and 24 minutes.

PART B) To find the kinetic energy we simply apply the definition of kinetic energy on the ship, which is

KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2

KE = \frac{1}{2} (100)(4564.42)^2

KE = 1.0416*10^9J

Therefore the kinetic energy of the Spacecraft is 1.04 Gigajules.

PLEASE EXPLAIN.

Explain a police role, and how important it is. also you can explain a mayor's role and how important it is...

A police's role in the community is to protect us and make sure that everyone is following the rules. it is important for a police to be there so we can be safe. Their status is fair enough. Another Example is a mayor. a mayor's job is to improve the city/ the community. His status is high. There are many people around us that help us, each with a different status.

What you know:
Vi=0m/s
Vf=143.8m/s
A=-9.8m/s
d=???
Use the equation Vf^2=Vi^2+2A(d)
Rearrange to isolate d: d=Vf^2/2A
d=(143.8)^2/2(-9.8)
d=20678.4/-19.6
d=-1055m

A parallel-plate capacitor is charged by connecting it to a battery. If the battery is disconnected and then the separation betw
TEA [102]

Answer:

The charge stored in the capacitor will stay the same. However, the electric potential across the two plates will increase. (Assuming that the permittivity of the space between the two plates stays the same.)

Explanation:

The two plates of this capacitor are no longer connected to each other. As a result, there's no way for the charge on one plate to move to the other. Q, the amount of charge stored in this capacitor, will stay the same.

The formula \displaystyle Q = C\, V relates the electric potential across a capacitor to:

  • Q, the charge stored in the capacitor, and
  • C, the capacitance of this capacitor.

While Q stays the same, moving the two plates apart could affect the potential V by changing the capacitance C of this capacitor. The formula for the capacitance of a parallel-plate capacitor is:

\displaystyle C = \frac{\epsilon\, A}{d},

where

  • \epsilon is the permittivity of the material between the two plates.
  • A is the area of each of the two plates.
  • d is the distance between the two plates.

Assume that the two plates are separated with vacuum. Moving the two plates apart will not affect the value of \epsilon. Neither will that change the area of the two plates.

However, as d (the distance between the two plates) increases, the value of \displaystyle C = \frac{\epsilon\, A}{d} will become smaller. In other words, moving the two plates of a parallel-plate capacitor apart would reduce its capacitance.

On the other hand, the formula \displaystyle Q = C\, V can be rewritten as:

V = \displaystyle \frac{Q}{C}.

The value of Q (charge stored in this capacitor) stays the same. As the value of C becomes smaller, the value of the fraction will become larger. Hence, the electric potential across this capacitor will become larger as the two plates are moved away from one another.
