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

A 103 kg physics professor has fallen into the Grand Canyon. Luckily, he managed to grab a branch and is now hanging 93 m below
siniylev [52]

Answer:

125.83672 seconds

Explanation:

P = Power of the horse = 1 hp = 746 W (as it is not given we have assumed the horse has the power of 1 hp)

m = Mass of professor = 103 kg

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

h = Height of professor = 93 m

Work done would be equal to the potential energy

W=mgh\\\Rightarrow W=103\times 9.8\times 93\\\Rightarrow W=93874.2\ J

Power is given by

P=\frac{W}{t}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{W}{P}\\\Rightarrow t=\frac{93874.2}{746}\\\Rightarrow t=125.83672\ seconds

The time taken by the horse to pull the professor is 125.83672 seconds

An electron and a proton are held on an x axis, with the electron at x = + 1.000 m and the proton at x = - 1.000 m.how much work
aksik [14]
It is required an infinite work. The additional electron will never reach the origin.

In fact, assuming the additional electron is coming from the positive direction, as it approaches x=+1.00 m it will become closer and closer to the electron located at x=+1.00 m. However, the electrostatic force between the two electrons (which is repulsive) will become infinite when the second electron reaches x=+1.00 m, because the distance d between the two electrons is zero:
F=k_e  \frac{q_e q_e}{d^2}
So, in order for the additional electron to cross this point, it is required an infinite amount of work, which is impossible.

Help me &lt;3 please <br> Thank you :)
NARA [144]

Answer:

11,890

Explanation:

First we need to know what is considered a significant figure.

A significant figure is a value that is not a zero at the start OR end of a value.

Which means, the 0 in the value of 90 or 0.363 are not considered a significant figure.

The 0 in the value of 3056 is considered a significant figure.

So from the table, we can deduce:

0.275 has 3 significant figures

750 has 2 significant figures

10.4 \times  {10}^{5}  = 1040000

has 3 significant figures.

11,890 has 4 significant figures.

320,050 has 5 significant figures.

So from the above, we can already see the answer.

A 113 kg man sits on the stern of a 6.3 m long boat. The prow of the
Usimov [2.4K]

Answer:

m = 105.37 kg

Explanation:

We are given;

Mass of man; m = 113 kg

Length of boat = 6.3m

Now, The position of the center of mass will not change during the motion of the man.

Thus,

X_g,i = X_g,f

So,

[113(6.3) + ma]/(113 + m) = [113(3.26) + m(a +3.26)]/(113 + m)

113 + m will cancel on both sides to give;

113(6.3) + ma = [113(3.26) + m(a +3.26)]

711.9 + ma = 368.38 + ma + 3.26m

ma will cancel out to give;

711.9 - 368.38 = 3.26m

343.52/3.26 = m

m = 105.37 kg
