Two long, parallel wires each carry the same current I, but the two currents are anti-parallel. The two wires are a distance r a

part. What is the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field, B, at a point that is at the midpoint, P, between the two wires?

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

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

D. Synthetic polymers are inexpensive to produce.

Explanation:

Hailey should include that synthetic polymers are inexpensive to produce as a benefit of synthetic polymers.

Synthetic polymers are artificially produced. These polymers come about from petroleum oil. Their hydrocarbons are industrially worked to produce the long chain hydrocarbons to form polymers.

Most of these polymers are very cheap to produce and does not cost too much. This is why they almost found everywhere.

kvasek [131]

Answer

given,

SAT is 500 with a standard deviation of 100.

a sample of 400 students whose family income was between $70,000 and $80,000 had an average verbal SAT score of 511.

sample mean = \dfrac{standard\ deviation}{\sqrt{n}}

                      = \dfrac{100}{\sqrt{400}}

                      = 5

95% confidence level is achieved within +/- 1.960 standard deviations.

1.960 standard deviations  x  5 is equal to +/- 9.8

confidence interval = 511 - 9.8   ---  511 + 9.8

                                = 501.2-----520.8
