A copper wire (density equal to 8900 kg / m3) 0.3 mm in diameter "floats" due to the force of the earth's magnetic field, which

is horizontal, perpendicular to the wire, and 5.5x10-5 T in magnitude. What current should the wire carry?

Answer:I=112.094\ A

Explanation:

Given

density \rho =8900\ kg/m^3

diameter d=0.3\ mm

Magnetic field B=5.5\times 10^{-5}\ T

Force on the current carrying conductor placed in a magnetic field

F=BIL\sin \theta

where L=length of conductor

\theta=angle between magnetic field and current

If the wire is floating then weight must be balanced by weight of wire

Weight=mg=\rho ALg

Therefore

\rho ALg=BIL\times \sin 90

8900\times \frac{\pi}{4}(0.3\times 10^{-3})^2L\times 9.8=5.5\times 10^{-5}\times I\times L

I=\frac{8900\times \pi\times 9\times 10^{-8}\times 9.8}{4\times 5.5\times 10^{-5}}

I=112.094\ A

A firecracker in a coconut blows the coconut into three pieces. Twopieces of equal mass fly off south and west, perpendicular to
loris [4]

Answer:

V = 13m/s

North-East (i.e. 45 degree from North)

Explanation:

This question deals with the idea of momentum.

Since the directions of a compass are fixed, we can take south as horizontal and west as vertical. Since both pieces of coconut are of equal mass, then the resultant of the two pieces would be in between South and West and the third piece would be opposite this direction and be in the North-East (i.e. 45 degree from North) direction

To find the speed of the third piece, we first find the speed on the two pieces of the coconut in terms of V_{x} (horizontal component of velocity) and V_{y} (vertical component of velocity)

We have

V_{y} = Velocity in South direction = 18m/s

m_{y} = Mass of piece in South direction = m

V_{x} = Velocity in West direction = 18m/s

m_{x} = Mass of piece in West direction = m

V_{ry} = Velocity of Third Piece in North direction = unknown

V_{rx} = Velocity of Third Piece in East direction = unknown

m = Mass of third piece = 2m

mV_{ry}  = m_{y} V_{y} \\ 2mV_{ry}  = m18\\ V_{ry} = 9

mV_{rx}  = m_{x} V_{x} \\ 2mV_{rx}  = m18\\ V_{rx} = 9

Since we now know the horizontal and vertical component of the velocity of the third piece of coconut we find the resultant velocity. Since we know the direction is North-East, we can imagine a right angled triangle with base of 9 and height 9 and the hypotenuse equal to the resultant velocity .

We can simply apply the Pythagoras theorem and find the hypotenuse

Hypotenuse^{2}  = Height^{2}  + Base^{2} \\ V_{3}^2  = 9^{2} + 9^{2} \\ V = 12.728 m/s

V = 13m/s

telo118 [61]
Light are transfer through waves in the atmosphere and yes it  true that the darker the color is the more heat it could absorb thus it is also explain that the lighter the color is the less heat or light its absorb its because the light is bounces back through other form of light and it lessens the amount of heat in a substance. In Ryan's procedure the possible wrong that he done is the present of a green cotton glove. Green color are one of the color that bounces light and could not support the hypothesis of Ryan and the possible temperature he could get is not the accurate one.
