1. The magnitude of the magnetic field doubles

Explanation: the intensity of the magnetic field produced by a current-carrying wire is given by:

$I=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r}$

where $\mu_0$ is the vacuum permeability, I is the current in the wire, r is the distance from the wire.

As we see from the formula, the intensity of the magnetic field is directly proportional to the current: if the current increases from 5 A to 10 A, it means it doubles, so the magnetic field doubles as well.

2. The magnitude of the magnetic field halves

Explanation: the intensity of the magnetic field produced by a current-carrying wire is given by:

$I=\frac{\mu_0 I}{2 \pi r}$

We see that the magnitude of the magnetic field is inversely proportional to the distance from the wire (r). In this case, the distance of the particle is changed from 10 cm to 20 cm, so it is doubled: therefore, the magnitude of the field will become half of the initial value.

3. The force reverses direction

Explanation: the force exerted on a charged particle in a magnetic field is:

$F=qvB sin \theta$

where q is the charge, v is the speed of the particle, B is the magnetic field intensity and $\theta$ the angle between the direction of v and B. If the charge of the particle is switched from 2 µC to –2µC, the magnitude of the force does not change (because the absolute value of q does not change), however the charge q gets a negative sign (-), so the sign of the force changes and gets a negative sign too, so the force reverses direction.

In the shadow of a tree with a dense, leafy canopy, one sees a number of light spots. Surprisingly, they all appear to be circul

Bad White [126]

The characteristics of the diffraction phenomenon allow to find the result for the shape of the points of light that you pass the tree is:

The shape of the dots is circular because it is in the range of far-field diffraction.

Diffraction is the phenomenon where the undulatory part of the light becomes evident, it is the interference of the waves that make up each ray of light, for this phenomenon to occur it must be fulfilled that the wavelength is of the order of the space where pass the light.

In the leafy tree it has many leaves, but there are spaces between them, some of these spaces are small and it fulfills the diffraction condition, therefore we see bright spots and not a continuous shadow.

Diffraction can be classified depending on the distance to the observer:

Near field or fresnel. In this case the distance from the observer is small and we can see the shape of the object that creates the diffraction.

Far field or Fraunhoger. In this case the distance between the obstacle (leaves) and the person is great, here the information on the shape of things is lost and we have two observable forms. Lines for the case of slits and circles for the case of objects with a closed shape.

In this case, the distance from the leaves to the observer is large, therefore we are in the case of far-field diffraction and since the edge of the leaves that forms the diffraction is closed, the observable shape is a circle.

In conclusion using the characteristics of the diffraction phenomenon we can find the result for the shape of the points of light that pass the tree is:

The shape of the dots is circular because it is in the range of far-field diffraction.

A 5,000 kg truck moving at 8 m/s has the same momentum as a 2,500 kg car. What is the velocity of the car?

rodikova [14]

Answer:

16 m/s.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass of truck = 5000 Kg

Velocity of truck = 8 m/s

Mass of car = 2500 kg

Velocity of car =..?

Next, we shall determine the momentum of the truck. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of truck = 5000 Kg

Velocity of truck = 8 m/s

Momentum of truck =.?

Momentum = mass × velocity

Momentum = 5000 × 8

Momentum of the truck = 40000 Kg.m/s

Finally, we shall determine the velocity of the car as follow:

From the question given above, we were told that the car and truck has the same momentum.

This implies that:

Momentum of the truck = momentum of car = 40000 Kg.m/s

Thus, the velocity of the car can be obtained as shown below:

Mass of car = 2500 kg

Momentum of the car = 40000 Kg.m/s

Velocity of car =..?

Momentum = mass × velocity

40000 = 2500 × velocity

Divide both side by 2500

Velocity = 40000/2500

Velocity = 16 m/s

Therefore, the velocity of the car is 16 m/s.

What to do if vehicle struck by lightning

agasfer [191]

Lighting flows around the outside of a truck, and the majority of the current flows from the cars metal cage into the ground below. It's not very safe to be in a car or truck during bad weather.
