Answer:

Kirchhoff's circuit laws are two equalities that deal with the current and potential difference (commonly known as voltage) in the lumped element model of electrical circuits. They were first described in 1845 by German physicist Gustav Kirchhoff.[1] This generalized the work of Georg Ohm and preceded the work of James Clerk Maxwell. Widely used in electrical engineering, they are also called Kirchhoff's rules or simply Kirchhoff's laws. These laws can be applied in time and frequency domains and form the basis for network analysis.

Both of Kirchhoff's laws can be understood as corollaries of Maxwell's equations in the low-frequency limit. They are accurate for DC circuits, and for AC circuits at frequencies where the wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation are very large compared to the circuits.

A 3.00 x 10^2-W electric immersion heater is

andre [41]

Answer

t = 367.77 s = 6.13 min

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy:

$Heat\ Supplied\ By \ Heater = Heat\ Absorbed\ by\ Glass + Heat\ Absorbed\ by\ Water\\Pt = m_gC_g\Delta T_g + m_wC_w\Delta T_w\\$

where,

P = Electric Power of Heater = 300 W

t = time required = ?

m_g = mass of glass = 300 g = 0.3 kg

m_w = mass of water = 250 g = 0.25 kg

C_g = speicific heat of glass = 840 J/kg.°C

C_w = specific heatof water = 4184 J/kg.°C

ΔT_g = ΔT_w = Change in Temperature of Glass and water = 100°C - 15°C

ΔT_g = ΔT_w = 85°C

Therefore,

$(300\ W)(t) = (0.3\ kg)(840\ J/kg.^oC)(85^oC)+(0.25\ kg)(4184\ J/kg.^oC)(85^oC)\\$

A gymnast is swinging on a high bar. The distance between his waist and the bar is 0.905 m, as the drawing shows. At the top of

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

5.959 m/s

Explanation:

m = Mass of gymnast

u = Initial velocity

v = Final velocity

$h_i$ = Initial height

$h_f$ = Final height

From conservation of Energy

$\frac{1}{2}mv^2+mgh_f=\frac{1}{2}mu^2+mgh_i\\\Rightarrow\frac{1}{2}mv^2+mg0=\frac{1}{2}m0^2+mgh_i\\\Rightarrow \frac{1}{2}mv^2=mgh_i\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{2gh_i}$

$h_i=2r$

$v=\sqrt{4gr}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{4\times 9.81\times 0.905}\\\Rightarrow v=5.959\ m/s$

Velocity of gymnast at bottom of swing is 5.959 m/s

An extremely long wire laying parallel to the x -axis and passing through the origin carries a current of 250A running in the po

viktelen [127]

Answer:

$1.232\times 10^{-5}\ T.$

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Current through the wire, passing through the origin, $I_1 = 250\ A.$

Current through the wire, passing through the y axis, $r_y=1.8\ m.$ , $I_2 = 50\ A.$

According to Ampere's circuital law, the line integral of magnetic field over a closed loop, called Amperian loop, is equal to $\mu_o$ times the net current threading the loop.

$\oint \vec B \cdot d\vec l=\mu_o I.$

In case of a circular loop, the directions of magnetic field and the line element $d\vec l$ , both are along the tangent of the loop at that point, therefore, $\vec B\cdot d\vec l = B\ dl$ .

$\oint \vec B \cdot d\vec l = \oint B\ dl = B\oint dl.\\$

$\oint dl$ is the circumference of the Amperian loop = $2\pi r$

Therefore,

$B\ 2\pi r=\mu_o I\\B=\dfrac{\mu_o I}{2\pi r}.$

It is the magnetic field due to a current carrying wire at a distance r from it.

For the first wire, passing through the origin:

Consider an Amperian loop of radius 3.510 m, concentric with the axis of the wire, such that it passes through the point where magnetic field is to be found, therefore, $r_1 = 3.510\ m.$

The magnetic field at the given point due to this wire is given by:

$B_1 = \dfrac{\mu_o I_1}{2\pi r_1}\\=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 250}{2\pi \times 3.510}=1.42\times 10^{-5}\ T.$

For the first wire, passing through the y-axis:

Consider an Amperian loop of radius (3.510+1.8) m = 5.310 m, concentric with the axis of the wire, such that it passes through the point where magnetic field is to be found, therefore, $r_2 = 5.310\ m.$

The magnetic field at the given point due to this wire is given by:

$B_2 = \dfrac{\mu_o I_2}{2\pi r_2}\\=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 50}{2\pi \times 5.310}=1.88\times 10^{-6}\ T.$

The directions of current in both the wires are opposite therefore, the directions of the magnetic field due to both the wires are also opposite to that of each other.

Thus, the net magnetic field at $r_r=-3.510\ m$ is given by

$B=B_1-B_2 = 1.42\times 10^{-5}-1.88\times 10^{-6}=1.232\times 10^{-5}\ T.$
