Three long wires are connected to a meter stick and hang down freely. Wire 1 hangs from the 50-cm mark at the center of the mete

r stick and carries 1.50 A of current upward. Wire 2 hangs from the 70-cm mark and carries 4.00 A of current downward. Wire 3 is to be attached to the meterstick and to carry a specific current, and we want to attach it at a location that results ineach wire experiencing no net force.
(a) Determine the position of wire 3.

Answer:

Three long wires are connected to a meter stick and hang down freely. Wire 1 hangs from the 50-cm mark at the center of the meter stick and carries 1.50 A of current upward. Wire 2 hangs from the 70-cm mark and carries 4.00 A of current downward. Wire 3 is to be attached to the meterstick and to carry a specific current, and we want to attach it at a location that results ineach wire experiencing no net force.

(a) Determine the position of wire 3.

b) Determine the magnitude and direction of current in wire 3

Explanation:

a) F_{net} \text {on wire }3=0

\frac{\mu_0 I_1 I_3}{2 \pi x} = \frac{\mu I_2 I_3}{2 \pi (0.2+x)} \\\\\frac{1.5}{x} =\frac{4}{0.2+x} \\\\0.03+1.5x=4x\\\\x=0.012m\\\\=1.2cm

position of wire = 50 - 1.2

= 48.8cm

b)  F_{net} \text {on wire }1=0

\frac{\mu _0 I_1 I_3}{2 \pi (1.2)} = \frac{\mu _0 I_1 I_2}{2 \pi (20)} \\\\\frac{I_3}{1.2} =\frac{4}{20} \\\\I_3=0.24A

Direction ⇒ downward

<span>Perpendicular parking spaces require turning at a 90 degree angle.

When you are going to park perpendicularly, you need a distance of 7 to 8 feet from the vehicle you are parking next to, and when you are parking parallel, you need 5 feet distance from the vehicle you are parking next to.</span>

400 N of load can be overcome by an effort of 50 N by using a lever. Calculate the mechanical advantage of the lever.
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

load (l)=400N

Effort(E)=50N

mechanical advantage (MA)= load ÷Effort

(ma)=400÷50

(ma)=8

A $100 cart is moving down an inclined plane at 1.30 m/s. The cart collides with a stationary object and rebounds with a speed o
Rasek [7]

Answer:

0.65  kg*m/s and 0.165 kg*m/s

Explanation:

Step one:

given data

mass m= 0.5kg

initial velolcity u=1.3m/s

final velocity v= 0.97m/s

Required

The change in momentum

Step two:

We know that the expression for impulse is given as

Ft= mv

Ft= 0.5*1.3

Ft= 0.65  kg*m/s

The expression for the change in momentum is given as

P= mΔv

substitute

Pt= 0.5*(1.3-0.97)

Pt= 0.5*0.33

Pt=0.165 kg*m/s

Describe the orbit in which planets revole around the sun
Novay_Z [31]
Planets orbit the sun in the paths which are known as elliptical orbit. Each planet has its own orbit around the sun and direction in which all the planets orbit around the sun are the same. These orbits were well explained by the astronomer Kepler. The gravity of the Sun keeps the planets in their orbits. They stay in their orbits because there is no other force in the Solar System which can stop them.

While a balloon is being filled, if the temperature of the air in the balloon decreases, what happens to its volume?
Ugo [173]
Why is it always balloons?
anyways so the balloon volume goes somewhere else when it shrinks because the balloon is losing air i think
