A wire 25 m long carries a current of 12 A from west to east. If the magnetic force on the wire due to Earth’s magnetic field is

upward (away from Earth) and has a magnitude of 4.0 × 10⁻² N, find the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field at this location.​

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em>1.33 x 10⁻ ⁴ T outwards.</em>

<em></em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

The equation for the magnetic force (F) on a wire whose length is L and carrying a current I in a magnetic field (B) that is uniform is given by;

F = ILB sin θ          ---------------------(i)

Where;

θ = angle between the direction of the current and that of the magnetic field.

From the question,

F = 4.0 × 10⁻² N

I = 12A

L = 25m

θ = 90°

<em>Substitute these values into equation(i) and solve as follows;</em>

4.0 × 10⁻² = 12 x 25 x B x sin 90°

4.0 × 10⁻² = 300 x B x 1

4.0 × 10⁻² = 300B

0.04 = 300B

B = \frac{0.04}{300}

B = 0.000133

B = 1.33 x 10⁻ ⁴ T

To get the direction of the magnetic field, the right-hand rule is used.

If the right hand fingers are positioned in the correct order specified by the right hand rule, then it would be seen that the magnetic field is directed outwards.

Therefore, the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field at this location is <em>1.33 x 10⁻ ⁴ T outwards.</em>

Electrical energy is used to turn the blades of a fan. The amount of energy transformed is seen here : 750 J electrical energy i
Charra [1.4K]

Electrical energy is used to run the fan

Here as per given condition 750 J of electrical energy is used to run the fan which is converted into Kinetic energy as 400 J

So here we can see that 350 J of energy is lost against many other type of frictional and resistive loses.

So here we can say that out of 750 J of energy only 400 J is used to run the fan and rest amount of energy is lost against friction.

also we can say that efficiency of this fan will be

\eta = \frac{Useful}{Total}

\eta = \frac{400}{750}

\eta = \frac{8}{25}

James Bond is trying to escape his enemy on a speedboat but
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

100 m/s

Explanation:

Mass the mass of Bond's boat is m₁. His enemy's boat is twice the mass of Bond's i.e. m₂ = 2 m₁

Initial speed of Bond's boat is 0 as it won't start and remains stationary in the water. The initial speed of enemy's boat is 50 m/s. After the collision, enemy boat is  completely stationary. Let v₁ is speed of bond's boat.

It is the concept of the conservation of momentum. It remains conserved. So,

m_1u_1+m_2u_2=m_1v_1+m_2v_2

Putting all the values, we get :

0+(2m_1)50=m_1v_1+(2m_2)(0)\\\\100m_1=m_1v_1\\\\v_1=100\ m/s

So, Bond's boat is moving with a speed of 100 m/s after the collision.

After a model rocket reached its maximum height, it then took 5.0 seconds to return to the launch site. what is the approximate
kifflom [539]
Air resistance is ignored.
g = 9.8 m/s².
At maximum height, the vertical velocity is zero.

Let h =  the maximum height reached.
Let u =  the vertical launch velocity.

Because ot takes 5.0 seconds to reach maximum height, therefore
(u m/s) - (9.8 m/s²)*(5 s) = 0 
u = 49 m/s

The maximum height reached is
h = (49 m/s)*(5 s) - (1/2)*(9.8 m/s²)*(5 s)²
   = 122.5 m

Answer: 122.5 m
