Answer:

C) 388.07

Explanation:

It is a spring therefore, there must be Elastic potential energy. Now what is the formula for elastic potential energy? It is 1/2 *k *x^2

K=spring constant

x= displacement  

1/2=.5 (hate fractions)

Now, Displacement simply means (how much was it moved?) So, that means subtract.

87-20= 67   x=67

Next, do x^2 (so you don't make a mistake by squaring everything :)  )

67*67=4,489

NOW, do....

.5*1729*4,489=3,880,740.5

Now convert to Joules, I just did 3,880,740.5  / 10^3 = 3880.745

round to 3880.7 J

Two long, straight wires are parallel and 10 cm apart.One carries a current of 2.0 A, the other a current of 5.0A. (a) If the tw
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given

Distance between two wires d=10 cm

Current value i_1=2 A

i_2=5 A

(a)If current flows in opposite direction

When current Flows in opposite direction the two wires will repel each other

Force due to current carrying wire F=\frac{\mu _0i_1i_2}{2\pi r}

F_{12}=F_{21}=\frac{\mu _0\times 2\times 5}{2\times \pi \times 0.1}

F_{12}=\frac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 2\times 5}{2\pi \times 0.1}

F_{12}=2\times 10^{-5} N (Repulsive Force)

(b)If current is flowing in the same direction

When direction of current is same then force will be attractive in nature

F_{12}=F_{21}=\frac{\mu _0i_1i_2}{2\pi r}

F_{12}=\frac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 2\times 5}{2\pi \times 0.1}

F_{12}=2\times 10^{-5} N (attractive Force)

Sully uses a battery and a coil of wire to create an electromagnet. Using the same materials, if he wants to increase the streng
garik1379 [7]
An electromagnet is a type of magnet in which the magnetic field is produced using the current. The simplest form of an electromagnet is a wire wrapped around in a coil.
The strength of magnetic field of such magnet is given with this equation:
B=\frac{NI\mu}{L}
Where N is the number of loops in the coil, I is the strength of the current flowing through the coil, L is the length of the coil, and \mu is <span>permeability of the electromagnet core material.
From this equation, we can see that increasing both the current and number of loops will increase the strength of the magnet.
Both BLANKS should be Increase. When you use the additional battery you will have more voltage and more voltage means more electricity.</span>
