A horizontal power line carries a current of 7250 A from south to north. Earth's magnetic field (65.7 µT) is directed toward the

north and is inclined downward at 70.0° to the horizontal. Find the (a) magnitude and (b) direction of the magnetic force on 140 m of the line due to Earth's field.

Answer:

a) ||\vec F_{B}||=62.664\,N, b) From east to west.

Explanation:

Vectorially, the magnetic force can be calculed by the following formula:

\vec F_{B} = i\cdot \vec l\, \times \, \vec B

The cross product is:

\vec F_{B} = \left|\begin{array}{ccc}i&j&k\\1015000\,A\cdot m&0\,A\cdot m&0\,A\cdot m\\22.471\times 10^{-6}\,T&-61.738\times 10^{-6}\,T&0\,T\end{array}\right|

\vec F_{B} = - 62.664\,N\cdot k

a) The magnitude of the magnetic force is:

||\vec F_{B}||=62.664\,N

b) The direction of the magnetic force is:

From east to west.

Sharks are generally negatively buoyant; the upward buoyant force is less than the weight force. This is one reason sharks tend
Tresset [83]

Answer:

8.67807 N

34.7123 N

Explanation:

m = Mass of shark = 92 kg

\rho_{se} = Density of seawater = 1030 kg/m³

\rho_{f} = Density of freshwater = 1000 kg/m³

\rho_{sh} = Density of shark = 1040 kg/m³

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Net force on the fin is (seawater)

F_n=mg-V_s\rho_{se}g\\\Rightarrow F_n=mg-\frac{m}{\rho_{sh}}\rho_{se}g\\\Rightarrow F_n=92\times 9.81-\frac{92}{1040}\times 1030\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_n=8.67807\ N

The lift force required in seawater is 8.67807 N

Net force on the fin is (freshwater)

F_n=mg-V_s\rho_{f}g\\\Rightarrow F_n=mg-\frac{m}{\rho_{sh}}\rho_{f}g\\\Rightarrow F_n=92\times 9.81-\frac{92}{1040}\times 1000\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow F_n=34.7123\ N

The lift force required in a river is 34.7123 N

gregori [183]
<span>During an exothermic process [heat flows from the system to the surroundings]. Exo roughly translates to outside, and thermic refers to heat. Heat is released from a system to its surroundings during an exothermic reaction, so the system would actually feel warm to the touch. The opposite of this is called and endothermic reaction.</span>

A wave propagates at a well defined velocity that depends on the properties of the medium that carries the wave. True or false?
likoan [24]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

A wave is generated as a result of oscillations which creates disturbances in the medium and these disturbances termed as waves propagates or travels from one point to another.

Waves can be classifies as:

Mechanical waves which requires material medium for their propagation

Electromagnetic waves which do not require any material medium to propagate.

A wave travels at a specific velocity depending on the type of the medium in which it propagates.

The mercalli scale is a scale from ________.
Mashcka [7]
<h2>Answer: 1 to 12. </h2>

<u>The Mercalli seismological scale is a scale of 12 degrees</u>, where 1 is very weak and 12 catastrophic.

This scale owes its name to the Italian physicist Giuseppe Mercalli and was developed to assess the intensity of earthquakes through the effects and damages caused to different structures.

This means the <u>Mercalli scale measures how strong a earthquake has been by </u><u>its consequences and not by its magnitude</u><u>, therefore it is based on </u><u>empirical observations.</u>
