Answer:

The force per unit length (N/m) on the top wire is 16.842 N/m

Explanation:

Given;

distance between the two parallel wire, d = 38 cm = 0.38 m

current in the first wire, I₁ = 4.0 kA

current in the second wire, I₂ = 8.0 kA

Force per unit length, between two parallel wires is given as;

\frac{F}{L} = \frac{\mu_oI_1I_2 }{2\pi d }

where;

μ₀ is constant = 4π x 10⁻⁷ T.m/A

Substitute the given values in the above equation and calculate the force per unit length

\frac{F}{L} = \frac{\mu_oI_1I_2 }{2\pi d } = \frac{4\pi *10^{-7}*4000*8000 }{2\pi *0.38} = 16.842 \ N/m

Therefore, the force per unit length (N/m) on the top wire is 16.842 N/m

Does the electrical conductivity of metals have anything to do with the electrostatic chart?
kvv77 [185]
Yes. Electrostatics are known to include the conductivity of metals whenever they start to have electrical flows on them. It's always been there on the list, and one notable instance of it is the flow of electricity in a wire.

A 4.30 g bullet moving at 943 m/s strikes a 730 g wooden block at rest on a frictionless surface. The bullet emerges, traveling
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

(a)2.7 m/s

(b) 5.52 m/s

Explanation:

The total of the system would be conserved as no external force is acting on it.

Initial momentum = final momentum

⇒(4.30 g × 943 m/s) + (730 g × 0) = (4.30 g × 484 m/s) + (730 g × v)

⇒ 730 ×v = (4054.9 - 2081.2) =1973.7

⇒v=2.7 m/s

Thus, the resulting speed of the block is 2.7 m/s.

(b) since, the momentum is conserved, the speed of the bullet-block center of mass would be constant.

V_{COM} = \frac{m_b}{m_b+m_{bl}}v_{bi}=\frac{4.30}{4.30+730}\times 943 m/s = 5.52 m/s

Thus, the speed of the bullet-block center of mass is 5.52 m/s.

You find a bag labeled "10 kg of lead-210". Its contents now weigh 1.25 kg. How many half-life periods have there been since the
zlopas [31]

Answer : The number of half-life periods will be, 3

Explanation :  Given,

Initial amount of lead = 10 kg

Amount of lead after decay = 1.25 kg

Half-life = 22 years

Formula used :

a=\frac{a_o}{2^n}

where,

a = amount of reactant left after n-half lives

a_o = Initial amount of the reactant

n = number of half lives

t_{1/2} = half-life

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

1.25=\frac{10}{2^n}

2^n=8

2^n=2^3

n=3

Thus, the number of half-life periods will be, 3

A 10 kg box hangs from a rope. What is the tension in the rope (in Newtons) if the box is stationary
Archy [21]

Answer:

T = 98 N

Explanation:

The gravity of the earth is known to be 9.8 m/s²

Data:

  • m = 10 kg
  • g = 9.8 m/s²
  • T = ?

Use formula:

  • \boxed{\bold{T=m*g}}

Replace and solve:

  • \boxed{\bold{T=10\ kg*9.8\frac{m}{s^{2}}}}
  • \boxed{\boxed{\bold{T=98\ N}}}

The tension in the rope is <u>98 Newtons.</u>

Greetings.
