A long wire carrying a 5.0 A current perpendicular to the xy-plane intersects the x-axis at x= - 2.0 cm . A second, parallel wir

mario62 [17]

Answer:

a . 0.35cm

b. 11.33cm

Explanation:

a. Given both currents are in the same direction, the null point lies in between them. Let x be distance of N from first wire, then distance from 2nd wire is 4-x

#For the magnetic fields to be zero,the fields of both wires should be equal and opposite.They are only opposite in between the wires:

$\frac{\mu_oi_1}{2\pi x}=\frac{\mu_oi_2}{2\pi(4-x)}\\\\5/x=\frac{3.5}{4-x}\\\\x=2.35cm\\\\N=2.35-2=0.35cm$

Hence, for currents in same direction, the point is 0.35cm

b. Given both currents flow in opposite directions, the null point lies on the other side.

#For the magnetic fields to be zero,the fields of both wires should be equal and opposite.They are only opposite in outside the wires:

Let x be distance of N from first wire, then distance from 2nd wire is 4+x:

$\frac{\mu_oi_1}{2\pi(4+ x)}=\frac{\mu_oi_2}{2\pi x}\\\\5/(4+x)=\frac{3.5}{x}\\\\x=9.33cm\\\\N=9.33+2=11.33cm$

Hence, if currents are in opposite directions the point on x-axis is 11.33cm

The record time for a Tour de France cyclist to ascend the 1100-m-high Alpe d'Huez is 37.5 min. The rider and his bike had a mas

Leni [432]

Answer

given,

height of Alpe d'Huez = 1100-m

time = 37.5 min

mass of the rider and his bike = 65 Kg

the metabolic power to ride = 700 W

U = m g y

U = 65 x 9.8 x 1100

U = 700700 J

since efficiency is 25%

$E_{chem} = \dfrac{U}{e}$

$E_{chem} = \dfrac{700700}{0.25}$

$E_{chem} = 2802800$

$E_{chem} = \dfrac{2802800}{4.19 \time 10^3}$

$E_{chem} =668.9\ cal$

b) $P = \dfrac{E_{chem}}{t}$

$P = \dfrac{2802800}{37.5\times 60\ s}$

P = 1245.68 W

Three identical resistors have an equivalent resistance 15.6 ohm when they are connected in series. What is the resistance for e

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

$R=5.2\ \Omega$

Explanation:

In series combination, the equivalent resistance is given by :

$R_{eq}=R_1+R_2+R_3+...$

Let the identical resistors be R. We have, $R_{eq}=15.6\ \Omega$

So,

$R+R+R=15.6\\\\3R=15.6\\\\R=\dfrac{15.6}{3}\\\\R=5.2\ \Omega$

So, the resistance of each resistor is $5.2\ \Omega$ .
