A thin aluminum rod lies along the x-axis and has current of I = 16.0 A running through it in the +x-direction. The rod is in th

e presence of a uniform magnetic field, perpendicular to the current. There is a magnetic force per unit length on the rod of 0.113 N/m in the −y-direction.
(a) What is the magnitude of the magnetic field (in mT) in the region through which the current passes?
(b) What is the direction of the magnetic field in the region through which the current passes?

Answer:

a) The magnitude of the magnetic field = 7.1 mT

b) The direction of the magnetic field is the +z direction.

Explanation:

The force, F on a current carrying wire of current I, and length, L, that passes through a magnetic field B at an angle θ to the flow of current is given by

F = (B)(I)(L) sin θ

F/L = (B)(I) sin θ

For this question,

(F/L) = 0.113 N/m

B = ?

I = 16.0 A

θ = 90°

0.113 = B × 16 × sin 90°

B = 0.113/16 = 0.0071 T = 7.1 mT

b) The direction of the magnetic field will be found using the right hand rule.

The right hand rule uses the first three fingers on the right hand (the thumb, the pointing finger and the middle finger) and it predicts correctly that for current carrying wires, the thumb is in the direction the wire is pushed (direction of the force; -y direction), the pointing finger is in the direction the current is flowing (+x direction), and the middle finger is in the direction of the magnetic field (hence, +z direction).

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Given:

The magnitude of each charge is q1 = q2 = 1 C

The distance between them is r = 1 m

To find the force when distance is doubled.

Explanation:

The new distance is

\begin{gathered} r^{\prime}=\text{ 2r} \\ =2\times1 \\ =2\text{ }m \end{gathered}

The force can be calculated by the formula

F=k\frac{q1q2}{(r^{\prime})^2}

Here, k is the constant whose value is

k=9\times10^9\text{ N m}^2\text{ /C}^2

On substituting the values, the force will be

\begin{gathered} F=9\times10^9\times\frac{1\times1}{(2)^2} \\ =2.25\times10^9\text{ N} \end{gathered}

HELP!!!
Vitek1552 [10]
We shall consider two properties:
1. Temperature difference
2. Thermal conductivity of the material

Use a cylindrical rod of a given material (say steel) which is insulated around its circumference.

One end of the rod is dipped in a large reservoir of water at 100 deg.C and the other end is dipped in water (with known volume) at 40 deg. C. The cold water if stored in a cylinder which is insulated on all sides. A thermometer reads the temperature of the cold water as a function of time.

This experiment will show that
(a) heat flows from a region of high temperature to a region of lower temperature.
(b) The thermal energy of a body increases when heat is added to it, and its temperature will rise.
(c) The thermal conductivity of water determines how quickly its temperature will rise. If mercury replaces water in the cold cylinder, its temperature will rise at a different rate because its thermal conductivity is different.

A meteorologist plans to release a weather balloon from ground level, to be used for high-altitude atmospheric measurements. The
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

563.86 N

Explanation:

We know the buoyant force F = weight of air displaced by the balloon.

F = ρgV where ρ = density of air = 1.29 kg/m³, g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s² and V = volume of balloon = 4πr/3 (since it is a sphere) where r = radius of balloon = 2.20 m

So, F = ρgV = ρg4πr³/3

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

F =  1.29 kg/m³ × 9.8 m/s² × 4π × (2.20 m)³/3

= 1691.58 N/3

= 563.86 N
