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>

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

lowest frequency = 535.93 Hz

distance  between adjacent anti nodes is 4.25 cm

Explanation:

given data

length L = 32 cm = 0.32 m

to find out

frequency and distance between adjacent anti nodes

solution

we consider here speed of sound through air at room temperature 20 degree is  approximately  v = 343 m/s

so

lowest frequency will be = \frac{v}{2L}   ..............1

put here value in equation 1

lowest frequency will be = \frac{343}{2(0.32)}

lowest frequency = 535.93 Hz

and

we have given highest frequency f = 4000Hz

so

wavelength =  \frac{v}{f}   ..............2

put here value

wavelength =  \frac{343}{4000}  

wavelength = 0.08575 m

so distance =  \frac{wavelength}{2}   ..............3

distance =  \frac{0.08575}{2}  

distance = 0.0425 m

so distance  between adjacent anti nodes is 4.25 cm

A spring has a force constant k, and an object of mass m is suspended from it. The spring is cut in half and the same object is
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

f2/f1 = \sqrt{2}

Explanation:

From frequency of oscillation

f = 1/2pi *\sqrt{k/m}

Initially with the suspended string, the above equation is correct for the relation, hence

f1 = 1/2pi *\sqrt{k/m}

where k is force constant and m is the mass

When the spring is cut into half, by physics, the force constant will be doubled as they are inversely proportional

f2 = 1/2pi *\sqrt{2k/m}

Employing f2/ f1, we have

f2/f1 = \sqrt{2}
