A closely wound circular coil has a radius of 6.00 cmand carries a current of 2.65 A. How many turns must it have if the magneti
ad-work [718]

Answer:

Given:

radius of the coil, R = 6 cm = 0.06 m

current in the coil, I = 2.65 A

Magnetic field at the center, B = 6.31\times 10^{4} T

Solution:

To find the number of turns, N, we use the given formula:

B = \frac{\mu_{o}NI}{2R}

Therefore,

N = \frac{2BR}{\mu_{o}I}

N = \frac{2\times 6.31\times 10^{4}\times 0.06}{4\pi \times 10^{- 7}\times 2.65}

N = 22.74 = 23 turns (approx)

A 5.0-m long, 12-kg uniform ladder rests against a smooth vertical wall with the bottom of the ladder 3.0 m from the wall. the c
Semmy [17]

First establish the summation of the forces acting int the ladder

Forces in the x direction Fx = 0 = force of friction (Ff) – normal force in the wall(n2)

Forces in the y direction Fy =0 = normal force in floor (n1) – (12*9.81) –( 60*9.81)

So n1 = 706.32 N

Since Ff = un1 = 0.28*706.32 = 197,77 N = n2

Torque balance along the bottom of the ladder = 0 = n2(4 m) – (12*9.81*2.5 m) – (60*9.81 *x m)

X = 0.844 m

5/ 3 = h/ 0.844

H = 1.4 m can the 60 kg person climb berfore the ladder will slip

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Point P is situated outside sphere . For a non conducting sphere , electric field outside sphere is given by the relation

E = k Q / d²

15000 = 9 x 10⁹ x Q / .5²

Q = 416.67 X 10⁻⁹

Maximum field will be when d = r ( radius )

maximum E = kQ / r²

= 9 x 10⁹ x 416.67 X 10⁻⁹ / .3²

= 41667 N / C
