Two rigid rods are oriented parallel to each other and to the ground. The rods carry the same current in the same direction. The

Greeley [361]

Answer:

I = 215.76 A

Explanation:

The direction of magnetic field produced by conductor 1 on the location of conductor 2 is towards left. Based on Right Hand Rule -1 and taking figure 21.3 as reference, the direction of force Fm due to magnetic field produced at C_2 is shown above. The force Fm balances the weight of conductor 2.

Fm = u_o*I^2*L/2*π*d

where I is the current in each rod, d = 0.0082 m is the distance 27rId

between each, L = 0.85 m is the length of each rod.

Fm = 4π*10^-7*I^2*1.1/2*π*0.0083

The mass of each rod is m = 0.0276 kg

F_m = mg

4π*10^-7*I^2*1.1/2*π*0.0083=0.0276*9.8

I = 215.76 A

note:

mathematical calculation maybe wrong or having little bit error but the method is perfectly fine

Which of the following is true about a planet orbiting a star in uniform circular

Mnenie [13.5K]

The velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the circle is the following is true about a planet orbiting a star in uniform circular motion.

A. The velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the circle.

Explanation:

Motion of the planet around the star is mentioned to be uniform and around a circular path. Objects in uniform circular motion motion has constant angular speed but the velocity of the object will not remain constant. Since the planet is in circular motion the direction of velocity vector at a particular point is tangential to the circular path at that particular point.

Thus at every point, the direction of velocity vector changes and this means the velocity is never constant. The objects in uniform circular motion has centripetal acceleration which means that velocity vector of the planet points toward the center of the circle.
