Two long parallel wires are separated by 6.0 mm. The current in one of the wires is twice the other current. If the magnitude of

the force on a 3.0-m length of one of the wires is equal to 8.0 μN, what is the greater of the two currents?

Answer:

Explanation:

Magnitude of force per unit length of wire on each of wires

= μ₀ x 2 i₁ x i₂ / 4π r    where i₁ and i₂ are current in the two wires , r is distance between the two and  μ₀ is permeability .

Putting the values ,

force per unit length = 10⁻⁷ x 2 x i x 2i / ( 6 x 10⁻³ )

= .67 i² x 10⁻⁴

force on 3 m length

= 3 x .67 x 10⁻⁴ i²

Given ,

8 x 10⁻⁶ = 3 x .67 x 10⁻⁴ i²

i²  = 3.98 x 10⁻²

i = 1.995 x 10⁻¹

= .1995

=  0.2 A approx .

2 i = .4 A Ans .

A car mass 600kg starts from rest moving uniform acceleration 0.2 m/s^2 after 60 seconds collides with stationary pick up van of

Answer:

The given phenomenon  supports the Principle of Conservation of momentum.

Explanation:

law of conservation of momentum  

Initial Momentum = Final Momentum

So, first we calculate initial momentum of the system:

Initial Momentum  = m1*u1 + m2*u2

and we are given

m1 = mass of car = 600 kg

m2 = mass of van = 400 kg

u1 = Initial Speed of Car  

to find the initial speed we use equation of motion

Vf = Vi + at

Vf = 0 m/s + (0.2 m/s²)(60 s)

Vf = u₁ = 12 m/s  

u₂ = Initial Speed of Van = 0 m/s

Therefore,

Initial Momentum  = (600 kg)(12 m/s) + (400 kg)(0 m/s)

Initial Momentum  = 7200 Ns   .........(1)

final momentum = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

where,

v₁ = v₂ = final speed of car+van (both locked ) = 7.2 m/s

Therefore,

Final Momentum = (600 kg)(7.2 m/s) + (400 kg)(7.2 m/s)

Final Momentum = 7200 Ns   -------- (2)

on comparing (1) and (2)

Initial momentum = Final Momentum

Hence, the phenomenon of the system supports the principle of conservation of momentum.

An archer fish launches a droplet of water from the surface of a small lake at an angle of 70° above the horizontal. He is aimin
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

a). v=2776 m/s

Explanation:

The speed of the water droplet for the fish be successful is

Taking the distance in axis 'x' and 'y'

x_{tx}=40cm\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.40m\\x_{ty}=23cm\frac{1m}{100cm}=0.23m

The time is the velocity in axis 'x' with the angle 70 so

t=\frac{0.40m}{v_{x}*cos(70)}

Now using the time in terms of velocity the motion in axis 'y' can find the velocity to be the fish successful

x_{yf}=x_{yo}+v_{o}*t+\frac{1}{2}*g*t^{2}\\0.23m=0.40m\frac{vo*sin(70)}{vo*cos(70)} +\frac{1}{2}*9.8*(\frac{0.40}{vo*cos(70)} )^{2}\\0.23m=0.40m*vo*tan(70)+4.9*(\frac{0.16m^{2} }{vo^{2} *cos(70)^{2} }) \\vo^{2}cos(70)^{2}=\frac{0.16m^{2} }{0.177}\\vo=\sqrt{\frac{0.9021}{cos(70)^{2}}} \\vo=2.776 \frac{m}{s}
