Answer:
The force per unit length (N/m) on the top wire is 16.842 N/m
Explanation:
Given;
distance between the two parallel wire, d = 38 cm = 0.38 m
current in the first wire, I₁ = 4.0 kA
current in the second wire, I₂ = 8.0 kA
Force per unit length, between two parallel wires is given as;
where;
μ₀ is constant = 4π x 10⁻⁷ T.m/A
Substitute the given values in the above equation and calculate the force per unit length
Therefore, the force per unit length (N/m) on the top wire is 16.842 N/m
Answer:
Distance between centre of Earth and centre of Moon is 3.85 x 10⁸ m
Explanation:
The attractive force experienced by two mass objects is known as Gravitational force.
The gravitational force is determine by the relation:
....(1)
According to the problem,
Mass of Moon, m₁ = 7.35 x 10²² kg
Mass of Earth, m₂ = 5.97 x 10²⁴ kg
Gravitational force experienced by them, F = 1.98 x 10²⁰ N
Universal gravitational constant, G = 6.67 x 10⁻¹¹ Nm²kg⁻²
Substitute these values in equation (1).
d = 3.85 x 10⁸ m
