Answer:

Zero

Explanation:

The magnetic field due to the first wire on the second wire with current i₁ in the first wire at a distance d from the second wire is B₁ = μ₀i₁/2πd.

The magnetic force due to this field on the second wire of length segment, L and current i₂ is F₁ = Bi₂L = (μ₀i₁/2πd)i₂L = μ₀i₁i₂L/2πd = F

The magnetic field due to the second wire on the first wire with current i₂ in the first wire at a distance d from the second wire is B₂ = μ₀i₂/2πd.

The magnetic force due to this field on the first wire of length segment, L and current i₁ is F₂ = Bi₁L = (μ₀i₂/2πd)i₁L = μ₀i₁i₂L/2πd = F

Since their magnetic fields are in opposite directions, according to the right hand rule, their forces would also be in opposite directions.

So F₁ = F and F₂ = -F

So their vector sum F₁ + F₂ = F +(-F) = F - F = 0

At the instant a traffic light turns green, a car starts with a constant acceleration of 1.3 m/s2. At the same instant a truck,
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

(a) Distance traveled = 75.3846 m

(b) Velocity of car at that instant will be 14 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given acceleration of the car a=1.3m/sec^2

Initial velocity of the cart u = 0 m/sec

(a) According to second equation of motion we know that s=ut+\frac{1}{2}at^2

So distance traveled by car s_c=0\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 1.3t^2=0.65t^2

As the truck is moving with constant speed

So distance traveled by truck s_t=ut=7t

As the truck overtakes the car

So s_c=s_t

0.65t^2=7t

t=10.769sec

So distance traveled s_c=s_t=7\times 10.769=75.3846m

(b) From second equation of motion we know that v = u+at

So v = 0+1.3×10.769 = 14 m /sec
