Answer:

Somewhere between the two wires, but closer to the wire carrying λ₂

Explanation:

Electric Field for a point at distance x from an electric charge Q is Ef = K*Q/x².

Electric Fied due to an electric charge is a vector and its direction is  such that  if we place a positive charge in the point it will be rejected ( equal sign charge repulse each other and different attract each other)

According to that previous explanation, it is no possible two have Ef=0 out of the two wires region, since above the upper wire and below the lower wire we have to add the two electric fields (both have the same direction). Therefore we only have possibilities of Ef = 0 inside the two wires, where the repulsion produced over a positive charge due to the two wires  are opposite

In the particular case in which λ₁ and λ₂ are equals then all the points exactly in the middle of d (distance between the two wires ) will have Ef =0.

As we can see at the beginning of the step by step explanation Electric field is proportional to the electric charge, or for a bigger charge, bigger Ef (keeping constant distance). In our case λ₁ >λ₂ then E₁ (Electric field produced by a wire carrying λ₁ will be bigger than (Electric field produced by wire carrying λ₂ at the middle way between the wires.

But for points closer to wire with λ₂  ( where E₂ is bigger than E₁ ) we will surely find an appropriate distance  to get equals E and then Ef = 0

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

96%

Explanation:

To find the values of the motor efficiency you use the following formula:

E=\frac{P_o}{P_i}100

P_o: output power = 864J/0.5min=864J/30s=28.8W

P_i: input power = I*V = (3A)(12V) = 36W

By replacing this values you obtain:

E=\frac{28.8W}{30W}*100=96\%

hence, the motor efficiency is about 96%

traslation:

Pentru a găsi valorile eficienței motorului, utilizați următoarea formulă:

P_o: putere de ieșire = 864J / 0.5min = 864J / 30s = 28.8W

P_i: putere de intrare = I * V = (3A) (12V) = 36W

Înlocuind aceste valori obțineți:

prin urmare, eficiența motorului este de aproximativ 96%

<h2>The temperature of the air is 66.8° C</h2>

Explanation:

From the Newton's  velocity of sound relationship , the velocity of sound is directly proportional to the square root of temperature .

In this case The velocity of sound = frequency x wavelength

= 798 x 0.48 = 383 m/sec

Suppose the temperature at this time = T K

Thus 383 ∝ \sqrt{T}                       I

The velocity of sound is 329 m/s at 273 K ( given )

Thus 329 ∝ \sqrt{273}                   II

Dividing I by II , we have

\frac{383}{329} = \sqrt{\frac{T}{273} }

or \frac{T}{273} = 1.25

and T = 339.8 K  = 66.8° C

rs. Rushing fills a balloon with hydrogen gas to demonstrate its ability to burn. Which combination could she use to produce the
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

Mg and HCl

Explanation:

Here, we want to get the combination that could be used in the production of the needed hydrogen

An important chemical property of inorganic acids is that when they react with metals, they give off hydrogen gas in conjunction with the formation of a salt

HCl is a mineral acid while Mg is a metallic substance

So the reaction between this metal and the mineral acids will give the needed hydrogen gas to be produced
