Answer:
The current drawn by Horace’s reading glasses is 0.8 A.
Explanation:
Given that,
Resistance of each bulb, R = 2 ohms
Voltage of the system, V = 3.2 volts
These two bulbs are connected in series. The equivalent resistance will be 2 ohms +2 ohms = 4 ohms
Let I is the current drawn by Horace’s reading glasses. Using Ohm's law to find it such that :

So, the current drawn by Horace’s reading glasses is 0.8 A.
Answer:
a) B = 1.99 x 10⁻⁴ Tesla
b) B = 0.88 x 10⁻⁴ Tesla
Explanation:
According to Biot - Savart Law, the magnetic field due to a currnt carrying straight wire is given as:
B = μ₀ I L/4πr²
where,
μ₀ = permebility of free space = 1.25 x 10⁻⁶ H m⁻¹
I = current = 2 A
L = Length of wire = 40 cm = 0.4 m
a)
r = radius of magnetic field = 2 cm = 0.02 m
Therefore,
B = (1.25 x 10⁻⁶ H m⁻¹)(2 A)(0.4 m)/4π(0.02 m)²
<u>B = 1.99 x 10⁻⁴ Tesla</u>
<u></u>
b)
r = radius of magnetic field = 3 cm = 0.03 m
Therefore,
B = (1.25 x 10⁻⁶ H m⁻¹)(2 A)(0.4 m)/4π(0.03 m)²
<u>B = 0.88 x 10⁻⁴ Tesla</u>

Answer:
C
Explanation:
a series circuit would be an odd choice to power a battery or light a lamp when a direct would be much more efficient, and it's not converting types of energy, so C is the best possible answer
