Two long, straight wires are parallel and 20 cm apart. One carries a current of 2.2 A, the other a current of 5.9 A. (a) If the

two currents flow in opposite directions, what is the magnitude (in N/m) and direction of the force per unit length of one wire on the other

Answer: 1.298\times 10^{-5}\ N/m

Explanation:

Given

Current in the first wire I_1=2.2\ A

Current in the second wire I_2=5.9\ A

wires are 20\ cm apart

Force per unit length between the current-carrying wires is

\Rightarrow \dfrac{F}{l}=\dfrac{\mu_oI_1I_2}{2\pi r}

Force exerted  by the wires is the same

Put the values

\Rightarrow \frac{F}{l}=f=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 2.2\times 5.9}{2\pi \times 0.2}=1.298\times 10^{-5}\ N/m

This force will be repulsive in nature as the current is flowing opposite

Answer:

  L = 5076.5 kg m² / s

Explanation:

The angular momentum of a particle is given by

         L = r xp

         L = r m v sin θ

the bold are vectors, where the angle is between the position vector and the velocity, in this case it is 90º therefore the sine is 1

as we have two bodies

       L = 2 r m v

let's find the distance from the center of mass, let's place a reference frame on one of the masses

        x_{cm} = \frac{1}{M} \sum  x_{i} m_{i}i

        x_{cm} = \frac{1}{m+m} ( 0 + l m)

        x_{cm} = \frac{1}{2m}  lm

        x_{cm} = \frac{1}{2}

        x_{cm} = 13.1 / 2 = 6.05 m

let's calculate

          L = 2  6.05  74.3  5.65

          L = 5076.5 kg m² / s

Answer:

Hello, how's your day going?

if humanity came together and made a base on the moon, it would be revolutionary. The point of a base on the moon would have multiple purposes. for example, some think that the moon contains valuable metals such as iron and titanium. a base would serve as a place for workers harvesting metals to rest. Obviously or not most of the iron harvesting would be done automatically by robots and such.

If such a base were constructed on the moon, it would be the begining of people living on other worlds and would be a great start for a base on Mars.

Hope it helped

How to find initial velocity
lesya [120]

Answer:

Velocity is a function of time and defined by both a magnitude and a direction. [1] Often in physics problems, you will need to calculate the initial velocity (speed and direction) at which an object in question began to travel. There are multiple equations that can be used to determine initial velocity. Using the information given in a problem, you can determine the proper equation to use and easily answer your question.
