Answer:

The length of the wire is 579 m

Explanation:

Given;

current on the wire, I =  11.3-mA

magnetic field of the wire, B = (16.2i + 2.4 ĵ) T

Magnitude of force experience by the wire, F = 15.7 N

Magnitude of force experience by  current carrying wire at a given a magnetic field strength is calculated as;

F = BILsinθ

Where;

B is magnitude of magnetic field

F is the force on the wire

L is length of the wire

θ is direction of the magnetic field

B = \sqrt{16.2^2 +2.4^2} = \sqrt{268.2} = 16.377 \ T

tan \theta = \frac{2.4}{16.2} \\\\tan \theta =  0.1482\\\\\theta = tan^{-1}(0.1482) \\\\\theta = 8.43^o

Length of the wire is calculated as;

L = \frac{F}{BIsin \theta} = \frac{15.7}{16.377*11.3*10^{-3}*sin(8.43)} = 578.9 \ m

Therefore, the length of the wire is 579 m

Answer:

minimum angle is 128.69°

Explanation:

given data

player velocity with respect ground v1 = 3.5 m/s

ball velocity with respect himself v2 = 5.6 m/s

to find out

smallest angle

solution

we know ball velocity with respect field will be

ball velocity = v1  +v2

ball velocity = 3.5 + 5.6 = 9.1m/s

we consider angle that player hit ball is θ

then by as per figure triangle

cosθ = \frac{v1}{v2}

cosθ = \frac{3.5}{5.6}

θ = 51.31

so minimum angle is 180 - 51.31 = 128.69°

You will now examine the relationship between the number of field lines through a surface and the tangle betwcen A and E) angle
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

a. cosθ b. E.A

Explanation:

a.The electric flux, Φ passing through a given area is directly proportional to the number of electric field , E, the area it passes through A and the cosine of the angle between E and A. So, if we have a surface, S of surface area A and an area vector dA normal to the surface S and electric field lines of field strength E passing through it, the component of the electric field in the direction of the area vector produces the electric flux through the area. If θ the angle between the electric field E and the area vector dA is zero ,that is θ = 0, the flux through the area is maximum. If  θ = 90 (perpendicular) the flux is zero. If θ = 180 the flux is negative. Also, as A or E increase or decrease, the electric flux increases or decreases respectively. From our trigonometric functions, we know that 0 ≤ cos θ ≤ 1 for  90 ≤ θ ≤ 0 and -1 ≤ cos θ ≤ 0 for 180 ≤ θ ≤ 90. Since these satisfy the limiting conditions for the values of our electric flux, then cos θ is the required trigonometric function. In the attachment, there is a graph which shows the relationship between electric flux and the angle between the electric field lines and the area. It is a cosine function  

b. From above, we have established that our electric flux, Ф = EAcosθ. Since this is the expression for the dot product of two vectors E and A where E is the number of electric field lines passing through the surface and A is the area of the surface and θ the angle between them, we write the electric flux as Ф = E.A
