Answer:

1. Energy = 2880 Joules.

2. Energy = 60 Joules.

3. Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

1. Voltage = 12 Volts

Current = 0.5 Amps

Time, t = 8 mins to seconds = 8 * 60 = 480 seconds

To find the energy;

Power = current * voltage

Power = 12 * 0.5

Power = 6 Watts

Next, we find the energy transferred;

Energy = power * time

Energy = 6 * 480

Energy = 2880 Joules

2. Charge, Q = 4 coulombs

Potential difference, p.d = 15V

To find the total energy transferred;

Energy = Q * p.d

Energy = 4 * 15

Energy = 60 Joules

3. Voltage = 6 Volts

Current = 1 Amps

Time = 2 minutes to seconds = 2 * 60 = 120 seconds

To find the quantity of charge;

Quantity of charge = current * time

Quantity of charge = 1 * 120

Quantity of charge = 120 Coulombs

An overhead electric power line carries a maximum current of 125 A. What is the magnitude of the maximum magnetic field at a poi

BARSIC [14]

Answer:

B= 55.6×10^(-7) Tesla

Explanation:

B= μoI/(2πr)

B: magnetic field strength

μo: permeability of free space and is equal to 4π×10^(-7) T.m/A

r: distance from the wire

I : current in the wire

B= (4π×10^(-7)×125)/(2π×4.5)

B= 55.6×10^(-7) Tesla

A large spool in an electrician's workshop has 65 m of insulation-coated wire coiled around it. When the electrician connects a

Art [367]

Answer:

$40.34\ \text{m}$

Explanation:

$L_1$ = Length of wire = 65 m

$I_1$ = Initial current = 1.8 A

$I_2$ = Final current = 2.9 A

We know

$R\propto \dfrac{1}{I}$

and

$R\propto L$

$\dfrac{V}{I}\propto L\\\Rightarrow L\propto \dfrac{1}{I}$

$\dfrac{L_2}{L_1}=\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}\\\Rightarrow L_2=\dfrac{I_1}{I_2}L_1\\\Rightarrow L_2=\dfrac{1.8}{2.9}\times 65\\\Rightarrow L_2=40.34\ \text{m}$

The length of the wire remaining on the spool is $40.34\ \text{m}$ .

Two long, straight wires both carry current to the right, are parallel, and are 25 cm apart. Wire one carries a current of 2.0 A

Artemon [7]

Answer:

x = 7.14 meters

Explanation:

It is given that,

Current in wire 1, $I_1=2\ A$

Current in wire 2, $I_2=5\ A$

Distance between parallel wires, r = 25 cm

Let at P point the net magnetic field equal to 0. The magnetic field at a point midway between the is given by :

$B=\dfrac{\mu_oI}{2\pi r}$

Let the distance is x from wire 1. So,

$\dfrac{I_1}{r}=\dfrac{I_2}{(0.25-r)}$

$\dfrac{2}{r}=\dfrac{5}{(25-r)}$

$x=\dfrac{50}{7}\ m$

x = 7.14 meters

So, the magnetic field will be 0 at a distance of 7.14 meters from wire 1. Hence, this is the required solution.
