The net force exerted by this loop on the straight wire with the current is directed:

a) towards the loop.
b) away from the loop.
c) to the right of the page.
d) to the left of the page.
e) is zero.

Answer:

Correct option A.

The net force exerted by this loop on the straight wire with the current is directed TOWARDS THE LOOP

Explanation:

The magnetic field exerts a force on a current-carrying wire in a direction given by the right-hand rule 1 (the same direction as that on the individual moving charges). This force can easily be large enough to move the wire since typical currents consist of very large numbers of moving charges.

Given that,

The wire's current is directed towards the right of the page.

The rectangular loops carry current in a clockwise direction.

Since the 'dot' field is increasing hence the induced magnetic field is 'cross', i.e. into the page and by the right-hand rule, the induced current is clockwise.

Then the magnetic field is into the page.

Since was known that

F= iL×B

Note the current is through the wire. Then, the length is in direction of the current.

Note: this equation gives the magnetic force that acts on a length L of a straight wire carrying a current (i) and immersed in a uniform magnetic field (B), that is perpendicular to the wire.

So, the magnetic field is always perpendicular to the current.

So using right hand rule,

F = i(L×B)

The length is to the right i.e. +x direction and the Magnetic field is perpendicular to the plane, i.e. in the +z direction

F = i (L•i × B•k)

F = iLB (i×k)

F = iLB•(-j)

F = -iLB•j

Then, the force is in the negative y-direction i.e. towards the loop.

A freight train has a mass of [02] kg. The wheels of the locomotive push back on the tracks with a constant net force of 7.50 ×
otez555 [7]

Answer:

t = 300.3 seconds

Explanation:

Given that,

The mass of a freight train, m=1.01\times 10^7\ kg

Force applied on the tracks, F=7.5\times 10^5\ N

Initial speed, u = 0

Final speed, v = 80 km/h = 22.3 m/s

We need to find the time taken by it to increase the speed of the train from rest.

The force acting on it is given by :

F = ma

or

F=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{t}\\\\t=\dfrac{m(v-u)}{F}\\\\t=\dfrac{1.01\times 10^7\times (22.3-0)}{7.5\times 10^5}\\\\t=300.3\ s

So, the required time is 300.3 seconds.

If the potential due to a point charge is 490 V at a distance of 10 m, what are the sign and magnitude of the charge?
uysha [10]

Answer:

+5.4×10⁻⁷ C

Explanation:

Electric potential: This can be defined as the work done in bringing a unit charge from infinity to that point against the action of the field. The S.I unit of potential is volt (V)

The formula for potential is

V = kq/r............................ Equation 1

Where V = electric potential, k = proportionality constant, q = charge, r = distance.

making q the subject of the equation,

q = Vr/k............................ Equation 2

Given: V = 490 V, r = 10 m,

Constant: k = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Substitute into equation 2

q = 490(10)/(9×10⁹)

q = 5.4×10⁻⁷ C

q = +5.4×10⁻⁷ C

Hence the charge is +5.4×10⁻⁷ C
