Credit-Card Magnetic Strips Experiments carried out on the television show Mythbusters determined that a magnetic field of 1000

gauss is needed to corrupt the information on a credit card's magnetic strip. (They also busted the myth that a credit card can be demagnetized by an electric eel or an eelskin wallet.) Suppose a long, straight wire carries a current of 7.0A . How close can a credit card be held to this wire without damaging its magnetic strip?

Answer:

14 μm

Explanation:

The magnetic field due to a long straight wire is B = μ₀i/2πr where  μ₀ = permeability of free space = 4π × 10⁻⁷ H/m, i = current = 7.0 A and r = distance of credit card from magnetic field.

So r = μ₀i/2πB since B = 1000 gauss = 1000 G × 1 T/10000 G  = 0.1 T

r = 4π × 10⁻⁷ H/m × 7.0 A/(2π × 0.1 T)

r = 2 × 10⁻⁷ H/m × 7.0 A/0.1 T

r = 14 × 10⁻⁷ H/m × A/0.1 T

r = 140 × 10⁻⁷ m

r = 1.4 × 10⁻⁵ m

r = 14 × 10⁻⁶ m

r = 14 μm

Stop lamps must be visible within____ to the rear
Charra [1.4K]
The answer is 300 feet. The stop lamp or lamps on the rear of a vehicle must show a red light that is set in motion upon application of the service or foot brake and, in a vehicle manufactured or assembled on or after January 1, 1964, must be visible from a distance of not less than 300 feet to the rear in normal sunlight. Take note, if the vehicle is manufactured or assembled January 1, 1964, the stop lamp or lamps must be visible from a distance of not less than 100 feet. Also, the stop lamp may be combined with one or more other rear lamps.

A baseball pitcher throws a ball horizontally at a speed of 34.0 m/s. A catcher is 18.6 m away from the pitcher. Find the magnit
Sidana [21]

To develop this problem, it is necessary to apply the concepts related to the description of the movement through the kinematic trajectory equations, which include displacement, velocity and acceleration.

The trajectory equation from the motion kinematic equations is given by

y = \frac{1}{2} at^2+v_0t+y_0

Where,

a = acceleration

t = time

v_0 = Initial velocity

y_0 = initial position

In addition to this we know that speed, speed is the change of position in relation to time. So

v = \frac{x}{t}

x = Displacement

t = time

With the data we have we can find the time as well

v = \frac{x}{t}

t = \frac{x}{v}

t = \frac{18.6}{34}

t = 0.547s

With the equation of motion and considering that we have no initial position, that the initial velocity is also zero then and that the acceleration is gravity,

y = \frac{1}{2} at^2+v_0t+y_0

y = \frac{1}{2} gt^2+0+0

y = \frac{1}{2} gt^2

y = \frac{1}{2} 9.8*0.547^2

y = 1.46m

Therefore the vertical distance that the ball drops as it moves from the pitcher to the catcher is 1.46m.

The velocity of a 1.3 kg block sliding down a frictionless inclined plane is found to be 1.26 m/s. 1.10 s later, it has a veloci
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

\theta = 25.3^\circ

Explanation:

The acceleration of the block can be found by the kinematics equations:

v = v_0 + at\\5.88 = 1.26 + a(1.1)\\a = 4.2~m/s^2

Since the plane is frictionless, the only force acting on the block along the motion of the block is its weight.

F = mg\sin(\theta) = ma\\g\sin(\theta) = a\\(9.8)\sin(\theta) = 4.2\\\theta = 25.3^\circ
