Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic field is 1.83 x 10^{-5} T.

Explanation:

The flow of an electric current in a straight wire induces magnetic field around the wire. When current is flowing through two wires in the same direction, a force of attraction exists between the wires. But if the current flows in opposite directions, the force of repulsion is felt by the wires.

In the given question, the direction of flow of current through the wires is opposite, thus both wires applies the same field on each other. The result to repulsion between them.

The magnetic field (B) between the given wires can be determined by:

B = \frac{U_{o}I }{2\pi r}

where: I is the current, r is the distance between the wires and U_{0} is the magnetic field constant.

But, I = 11 A, r = 0.12 m and U_{0} = 4\pi x 10^{-7} Tm/A

So that;

B = \frac{4\pi *10^{-7}*11 }{2\pi *0.12}

   = 1.8333 x 10^{-5}

B = 1.83 x 10^{-5} T

What factors determine climate?
const2013 [10]

Answer:

here

Explanation:

Climate is determined by the temperature and precipitation characteristics of a region over time. The temperature characteristics of a region are influenced by natural factors such as latitude, elevation and the presence of ocean currents.

natta225 [31]

Answer:

f ’= 97.0 Hz

Explanation:

This is an exercise of the doppler effect use the frequency change due to the relative movement of the fort and the observer

in this case the source is the police cases that go to vs = 160 km / h

and the observer is vo = 120 km / h

the relationship of the doppler effect is

          f ’= f₀ (v + v₀ / v- v_{s})

let's reduce the magnitude to the SI system

            v_{s} = 160 km / h (1000 m / 1km) (1h / 3600s) = 44.44 m / s

            v₀ = 120 km / h (1000m / 1km) (1h / 3600s) = 33.33 m / s

we substitute in the equation of the Doppler effect

          f ‘= 100 (330+ 33.33 / 330-44.44)

          f ’= 97.0 Hz
