Answer:

8 x 10⁻⁷ x  I / r

Explanation:

Two parallel long wires are carrying current I . Let the direction be towards the right in the farthest and towards the left in the nearest. Magnetic field due to current I  at a  distance d is given by the expression

B = μ₀ 2 I / 4π d

I the present case distance d = r/2  

Magnetic field due to one wire at point d = r/2  is

B₁ = μ₀ 2 I / (4π r / 2 )

= 10⁻⁷ x 4I / r

Magnetic field due to the other wire at point d = r/2  is

B₂ = μ₀ 2 I / (4π r / 2 )

= 10⁻⁷ x 4I / r

Direction of magnetic field due to both the wires at the mid  point P will be same . It will be in downward direction in the given scenario

So total magnetic field

B = B₁ + B₂

= 2 x  10⁻⁷ x 4I / r

= 8 x 10⁻⁷ x  I / r

If a quantity of heat equal to the magnitude of the change in mechanical energy of the water goes into the water, what is its in
Flauer [41]
Increase in temperature of water = 0.53 °C
Explanation:
Change in mechanical energy = Potential energy
Potential energy = mgh
Mass, m = Mass of 1 L water = 1 kg
Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.81 m/s²
Height, h = 225 m
Potential energy = 1 x 9.81 x 225 = 2207.25 J
Because of this 2207.25 J water gets heated.
Heat energy, E = mcΔT
Mass, m = Mass of 1 L water = 1 kg
Specific heat of water, c = 4200 J/kg/C
Energy, E = 2207.25 J
Change in temperature, ΔT = ?
Substituting
2207.25 = 1 x 4200 x ΔT
ΔT = 0.53 °C
Increase in temperature of water = 0.53 °C

[OU.04]What type of galaxy is described as having a circular shape with most of the objects concentrated around its center? spir
GalinKa [24]

Answer:

spiral

Explanation:

A galaxy may be defined as the huge collection of celestial bodies like the stars, planets, dark matters, dust and gases and the solar systems. It is derived from the Greek work, 'Galaxias' , which means "milky". There are many types of galaxies. They are : Spiral galaxy, Elliptical galaxy, Irregular galaxy and Barred spiral galaxy.

A spiral galaxy is one which contains a sphere shaped bulge which consists of old stars and it is devoid of dust and gas. Its circular shape composes a disk. It is of circular shape having most of the objects concentrated in its center.

A rocket accelerates at 25m/s^2 for 5s before it runs out of fuel and dies. What is the maximum height reached by the rocket?
sineoko [7]

Answer:

1109m

Explanation:

The distance h₁ traveled by the rocket during acceleration:

h_1=\frac{1}{2}at^2

The velocity v₁ at this height h₁:

v_1=at

When the rocket runs out of fuel, energy is conserved:

E=\frac{1}{2}mv_1^2+mgh_1=mgh_2

Solving for h₂:

h_2=\frac{v_1^2}{2g}+h_1=\frac{(at)^2}{2g}+\frac{1}{2}at^2

A bicycle tire of a radius of 0.44 m has a piece of gum stuck on its rim. What is the angle through which the tire rotates when
Karolina [17]

Based on the calculations, the angle through which the tire rotates is equal to 4.26 radians and 244.0 degrees.

<h3>How to calculate the angle?</h3>

In Physics, the distance covered by an object in circular motion can be calculated by using this formula:

S = rθ

<u>Where:</u>

  • r is the radius of a circular path.
  • θ is the angle measured in radians.
  • S is the distance.

Substituting the given parameters into the formula, we have;

1.87 = 0.44 × θ

θ = 1.87/0.44

θ = 4.26 radians.

Next, we would convert this value in radians to degrees:

θ = 4.26 × 180/π

θ = 4.26 × 180/3.142

θ = 244.0 degrees.
