A 34-m length of wire is stretched horizontally between two vertical posts. The wire carries a current of 68 A and experiences a

magnetic force of 0.16 N. Find the magnitude of the earth's magnetic field at the location of the wire, assuming the field makes an angle of 72.0° with respect to the wire.

Answer:

7.28×10⁻⁵ T

Explanation:

Applying,

F = BILsin∅............. Equation 1

Where F = magnetic force, B = earth's magnetic field, I = current flowing through the wire, L = Length of the wire, ∅ = angle between the field and the wire.

make B the subject of the equation

B = F/ILsin∅.................. Equation 2

From the question,

Given: F = 0.16 N, I = 68 A, L = 34 m, ∅ = 72°

Substitute these values into equation 2

B = 0.16/(68×34×sin72°)

B = 0.16/(68×34×0.95)

B = 0.16/2196.4

B = 7.28×10⁻⁵ T

In a local bar, a customer slides an empty beer mug down the counter for a refill. The height of the counter is 1.14 m. The mug

Say the horizontal component of the velocity is vx and the vertical is vy.
Initially at t=0 (as the mug leaves the bar) the components are v0x and v0y.
Obviously (I hope!) v0y = 0.

The equations for horizontal and vertical projectile motion (with the positive direction up) are

x = x0 + v0x t
y = y0 + v0y t - 1/2 g t^2 = y0 - 1/2 g t^2

Now choose the origin to be the end of the counter. x0=0 and y0=0. The equations simplify to

x = v0x t
y = - 1/2 g t^2

You know that x = 1.20m when y = -0.88m
From the y equation (and g=10 m/s^2) you can calculate the time that the mug hits the floor.
t = 0.420s
From the x equation we get the initial horizontal velocity
v0x = x/t = 1.2/0.42 = 2.86 m/s

(b) x-component of velocity is constant since there are no horizontal forces so vx = 2.86 m/s
y-component is given by v = u+at with u=0 and a=-g
vy = -gt = -4.2m/s

Now tan(angle) = vy/vx so angle = arctan(vy/vx)

A brief explanation of the properties of electron spin including, but not limited to, the pairing of electrons. (30 points)
Zarrin [17]

<u>Explanation of the properties of electron spin:</u>

Electron spin:

Electron spin is a quantum characteristic of electrons. It is a mode of angular momentum. The magnitude of this angular momentum is perpetual. If the electron spins clockwise on its axis, it is described as spin-up; counterclockwise is spin-down.

  • Electron spin has representative s
  • The electron spin quantum number has representative ms.

Electron pair:

Electron pair is also known as lewis pair. Lewis pair consists of two electrons that fill the same molecular orbital but have opposing spins. Gilbert N. Lewis introduced the electron pair idea in a 1916 article.
