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

Mariulka [41]

Answer:

16.3 ft/s

Explanation:

Let d=distance

and

x = length of shadow.

Therfore,

x=(d + x)

 = 6/15

So,

    15x = 6x + 6d

     9x = 6d.

x = (2/3)d.

As we know that:

dx=dt

   = (2/3) (d/dt) 

Also,

Given:

d(d)=dt

     = 7 ft/s

Thus,

d(d + x)=dt

           = (7/3)d (d/dt)

Substitute, d= 7  

d(d + x) = 49/3 ft/s.

Hence,

d(d + x) = 16.3 ft/s.
