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

Calculate the weight of an apple of mass 100grams on Earth
11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

In physics the standard unit of weight is Newton, and the standard unit of mass is the kilogram. On Earth, a 1 kg object weighs 9.8 N, so to find the weight of an object in N simply multiply the mass by 9.8 N. Or, to find the mass in kg, divide the weight by 9.8 N.

Why can’t solids flow
Annette [7]

Answer:

basically they have too much mass in them

Explanation:

They are held tightly together by strong forces of attraction. They are held in fixed positions but they do vibrate. Because the particles don't move, solids have a definite shape and volume, and can't flow. Because the particles are already packed closely together, solids can't easily be compressed.
