While on the moon, the Apollo astronauts enjoyed the effects of a gravity much smaller than that on Earth. If Neil Armstrong jum

Answer:

The gravitational acceleration experienced was of 1.63m/s².

Explanation:

We know, from the kinematics equations of vertical motion that:

v^{2} =v_0^2-2gy

Solving for g, we get:

g=-\frac{v^2-v_0^2}{2y}

Since the final speed is zero, because Neil Armstrong came to a stop in his maximum height, we obtain:

g=\frac{v_0^2}{2y}

Finally, we plug in the given values of the initial speed and the maximum height:

g=\frac{(1.51m/s)^2}{2(0.700m)}=1.63m/s^2

This means that the gravitational acceleration experienced by Neil Armstrong in the moon, was of 1.63m/s².

Two long, parallel wires are attracted to each other by a force per unit length of 350 µN/m. One wire carries a current of 22.5
pishuonlain [190]

Answer

given,

force per unit length = 350 µN/m

current, I = 22.5 A

y = y = 0.420 m

\dfrac{F}{L}= \dfrac{KI_1I_2}{d}

I_2 = \dfrac{F}{L}\dfrac{d}{KI_1}

I_2 = 350\times 10^{-6}\times \dfrac{0.42}{2 \times 10^{-7}\times 22.5}

    I₂ = 32.67 A

distance where the magnetic field is zero

\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 32.67}{2\pi y_1}=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 22.5}{2\pi (0.42-y_1)}

y_1 = 0.248\ m

there the distance at which the magnetic field is zero in the two wire is at 0.248 m.

A man stands at the midpoint between two speakers that are broadcasting an amplified static hiss uniformly in all directions. Th
Illusion [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

The power of each of the speakers is 0.535 W. At a distance d intensity of sound can be found by the following formula

Intensity of sound =  Power / 4π d²

= .535 / 4 x 3.14 x (27.3/2)²

= 2.286 x 10⁻⁴ J m⁻² s⁻¹

Intensity of sound due to other source = 5.715 x 10⁻⁵J m⁻² s⁻¹

Total intensity = 2 x 2.286 x 10⁻⁴J m⁻² s⁻¹

= 4.57 x 10⁻⁴J m⁻² s⁻¹

b ) In this case, man is standing at distances 18.15 m and 9.15 m from the sources .

The total intensity of sound reaching him is as follows

0.535 / (4 π x18.15² ) + 0.535 /  (4 π x9.15² )

= 1.293 x 10⁻⁴ + 5.087 x 10⁻⁴

= 6.38 x 10⁻⁴J m⁻² s⁻¹

What is the magnitude of the magnetic field at a point midway between them if the top one carries a current of 19.5 A and the bo
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

The magnetic field will be \large{\dfrac{1.4 \times 10^{-4}}{d}} T, '2d' being the distance the wires.

Explanation:

From Biot-Savart's law, the magnetic field (\large{\overrightarrow{B}}) at a distance 'r' due to a current carrying conductor carrying current 'I' is given by

\large{\overrightarrow{B} = \dfrac{\mu_{0}I}{4 \pi}} \int \dfrac{\overrightarrow{dl} \times \hat{r}}{r^{2}}}

where '\overrightarrow{dl}' is an elemental length along the direction of the current flow through the conductor.

Using this law, the magnetic field due to straight current carrying conductor having current 'I', at a distance 'd' is given by

\large{\overrightarrow{B}} = \dfrac{\mu_{0}I}{2 \pi d}

According to the figure if 'I_{t}' be the current carried by the top wire, 'I_{b}' be the current carried by the bottom wire and '2d' be the distance between them, then the direction of the magnetic field at 'P', which is midway between them, will be perpendicular towards the plane of the screen, shown by the \bigotimes symbol and that due to the bottom wire at 'P' will be perpendicular away from the plane of the screen, shown by \bigodot symbol.

Given \large{I_{t} = 19.5 A} and \large{I_{B} = 12.5 A}

Therefore, the magnetic field (\large{B_{t}}) at 'P' due to the top wire

B_{t} = \dfrac{\mu_{0}I_{t}}{2 \pi d}

and the magnetic field (\large{B_{b}}) at 'P' due to the bottom wire

B_{b} = \dfrac{\mu_{0}I_{b}}{2 \pi d}

Therefore taking the value of \mu_{0} = 4\pi \times 10^{-7} the net magnetic field (\large{B_{M}}) at the midway between the wires will be

\large{B_{M} = \dfrac{4 \pi \times 10^{-7}}{2 \pi d} (I_{t} - I_{b}) = \dfrac{2 \times 10^{-7}}{d} = \dfrac{41.4 \times 10 ^{-4}}{d}} T

How many significant figures should be written in the sum 4.65g +9.032g+580.0078+540.439g?
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer: 1.13 X 10^3 g or 1130 g

Explanation: When you add up everything, you will get 1134.1288 g = 1.11341218 X 10^3. But while adding significant figures, we always look for the least significant figures (here 4.65 has least sig. figures  i.e. 3) and take that as a reference to how many significant figures we should have in the answer. (Pretty hard to explain!) Hope you got it!!
