We can apply Ampere's law to find the magnetic field generated by a loop of wire: taking any closed loop, the line integral of the magnetic field on this loop is equal to the product between the permeability \mu times the current flowing through this loop. 

In our example, let's take a rectangular path with one side of length L parallel to to the axis of the wire loop. The contribution on the two other perpendicular sides is zero, as well as for the side outside the wire loop, so the only relevant contribution of the magnetic field is BL. So we have
BL = \mu I N
where I is the current flowing through the wire loop, and N the number of loops in the length L. So we can write the magnetic field inside the wire loop as
B=\mu  \frac{N}{L}  I=\mu n I
where n= \frac{N}{L} is the number of loops per unit of length.

Using the right hand rule, one can see that the field inside the wire loop has the same direction of the axis of the wire loop, while the contribution outside the wire loop is negligible.

Which of acceleration, age, speed, temperature, and velocity are vector quantities?.
ollegr [7]

Velocity and acceleration are vector quantities whereas speed, temperature and age are not.

<h3>What is a vector quantity?</h3>

Vector is a quantity that has both magnitude and direction and is represented by an arrow whose direction is same as that of the quantity and length is proportional to the quantity's magnitude.

Vector has magnitude and direction but it does not have position. Velocity and acceleration both are vector quantities as they have magnitude and direction.

If the speed of an object remains same but direction changes then the object is accelerating. It is important to remember that acceleration and velocity aren't always in the same direction.

What causes convection currents, and what do they do?
frez [133]

Answer:

Convection currents are the result of different heating. Lighter material (warm) rises while heavier (cold) material sinks. This movement of the materials is what causes convection currents! (BTW, it happens in water, in the atmosphere, and in the mantle of Earth!

Explanation:

I hope this helps a little! :)

At a distance D from a very long (essentially infinite) uniform line of charge, the electric field strength is 1000 N/C. At what
Alla [95]

Answer:

The correct option is (a).

Explanation:

We know that, the E is inversely proportional to the distance as follows :

E=\dfrac{k}{d^2}

We can write it as follows :

\dfrac{E_1}{E_2}=(\dfrac{d_2}{d_1})^2

Put all the values,

\dfrac{1000}{2000}=(\dfrac{d_2}{d})^2\\\\\sqrt{\dfrac{1000}{2000}}=(\dfrac{d_2}{D})\\\\0.7071=\dfrac{d_2}{d}\\\\d_1=0.7071D\\\\d_1=\dfrac{D}{\sqrt2}

So, the correct option is (a).
