Two rigid rods are oriented parallel to each other and to the ground. The rods carry the same current in the same direction. The

length of each rod is 0.67 m, while the mass of each is 0.082 kg. One rod is held in place above the ground, and the other floats beneath it at a distance of 7.4 mm. Determine the current in the rods.

To develop this problem we will apply the concepts related to the Electromagnetic Force. The magnetic force can be defined as the product between the free space constant, the current (of each cable) and the length of these, on the perimeter of the cross section, in this case circular. Mathematically it can be expressed as,

F= \frac{\mu_0}{2\pi} \frac{I^2L}{d}

Here,

\mu_0 = Permeability free space

I = Current

L = Length

d= Distance between them

Our values are,

L = 0.67m

m = 0.082kg

d = 7.4*10^{-3}m

I = \text{Current through each of the wires}

Rearranging the previous equation to find the current,

\frac{mg}{L} = 2*10^{-7} (\frac{I^2}{d})

I = \sqrt{\frac{mgd}{(2*10^{-7})L}}

I = \sqrt{\frac{(0.082)(9.8)(7.4*10^{-3})}{(2*10^{-7})(0.67)}}

I = \sqrt{44377.9}

I = 210.66A

Therefore the current in the rods is 210.6A

Answer:

I = 298A

Explanation:

Given m = 0.082kg for both rods, r = distance between the rods = 7.4mm = 7.4 ×10-³m, L = 0.67m, μo = 4π×10-⁷Tm/A.

For the two rods to be in equilibrium, the sum of their weights must balance the magnetic force of attraction between them.

So

mg + mg = μo× I×I×L/(2πr)

2mg = μo×I²×L/(2πr)

Re arranging,

I = √(4π×mgr/μo×L)

I = √(4π×0.082×9.8×0.0074/(4π×10-⁷×0.67))

I = 298A

Which one of the following temperatures is equal to 5°C?
natali 33 [55]

Answer : The correct option is, (D) 278 K

Explanation :

We are given temperature 5^oC.

Now the conversion factor used for the temperature is,

K=^oC+273

where, K is kelvin and ^oC is Celsius.

Now put the value of temperature, we get

K=5^oC+273=278K

Therefore, the temperature 278 K is equal to the 5^oC

Komok [63]

Answer:

Tissues that are damaged or injured.

Explanation:

Dystrophic calcification involves the deposition of calcium in soft tissues despite no disturbance in the calcium metabolism, and this is often seen at damaged tissues.

Examples of areas in the body where dystrophic calcification can occur include atherosclerotic plaques and damaged heart valves.

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

100 km/h

Explanation:

96km•2.5=240km

240÷3/5=240•5/3=400km

400-240=160km

4.1-2.5=1.6h

160÷1.6=100km/h

Why would Sodium(Na) and Chlorine (CI) want to form a lonic Bond?
miskamm [114]

Answer: to achieve a stable octet of electrons in their outer shell

Explanation:

- Sodium (Na) has an atomic number of 11, and an electronic configuration of 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s1.

- Chlorine (CI) Sodium (Na) has an atomic number of 17, and an electronic configuration of 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s2 3p5.

Hence, sodium donates its single valence electron to chlorine, thereby achieving a stable octet structure of 1s2, 2s2 2p6 while chlorine accept the single electron also forming a stable octet structure of 1s2, 2s2 2p6, 3s2 3p6. Therefore, the reaction yields NaCl, an ionic compound with ionic (electrovalent) bond.

Na + Cl --> NaCl

Thus, Sodium(Na) and Chlorine (CI) want to form a lonic Bond because both acheive a completely filled outermost shell (octet structure)
