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

length of each rod is 1.1 m, while the mass of each is 0.10 kg. One rod is held in place above the ground, and the other floats beneath it at a distance of 11 mm. Determine the current in the rods.

Answer:

220 A

Explanation:

The magnetic force on the floating rod due to the rod held close to the ground is F = BI₁L where B = magnetic field due to rod held close the ground = μ₀I₂/2πd where μ₀ = permeability of free space = 4π × 10⁻⁷ H/m, I₂ = current in rod close to ground and d = distance between both rods = 11 mm = 0.011 m. Also, I₁ = current in floating rod and L = length of rod = 1.1 m.

So, F = BI₁L

F = (μ₀I₂/2πd)I₁L

F = μ₀I₁I₂L/2πd

Given that the current in the rods are the same, I₁ = I₂ = I

So,

F = μ₀I²L/2πd

Now, the magnetic force on the floating rod equals its weight , W = mg where m = mass of rod = 0.10kg and g = acceleration due to gravity = 9.8 m/s²

So, F = W

μ₀I²L/2πd = mg

making I subject of the formula, we have

I² = 2πdmg/μ₀L

I = √(2πdmg/μ₀L)

substituting the values of the variables into the equation, we have

I = √(2π × 0.011 m × 0.1 kg × 9.8 m/s²/[4π × 10⁻⁷ H/m × 1.1 m])

I = √(0.01078 kgm²/s²/[2 × 10⁻⁷ H/m × 1.1 m])

I = √(0.01078 kgm²/s²/[2.2 × 10⁻⁷ H])

I = √(0.0049 × 10⁷kgm²/s²H)

I = √(0.049 × 10⁶kgm²/s²H)

I = 0.22 × 10³ A

I = 220 A

Explain the importance of resistors in a circuit. Cite some instances to prove this example.
Arisa [49]
A resistor is a passive two-terminal electrical component that implements electrical resistance as a circuit element. In electronic circuits, resistors are used to reduce current flow, adjust signal levels, to divide voltages, bias active elements, and terminate transmission lines, among other uses. High-power resistors that can dissipate many watts of electrical power as heat, may be used as part of motor controls, in power distribution systems, or as test loads for generators. Fixed resistors have resistances that only change slightly with temperature, time or operating voltage. Variable resistors can be used to adjust circuit elements (such as a volume control or a lamp dimmer), or as sensing devices for heat, light, humidity, force, or chemical

An arrow of mass 0.5kg so it has 25J of kinetic energy; find the speed of the arrow v = m/s​
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

10 m/s

Explanation:

Use the kinetic energy formula:

KE=(1/2)mv^2

I always remember it as Kevin is half-mad, and very square.

25J = (1/2)*0.5kg*(v^2)

50J = 0.5kg*(v^2)

100J = v^2

v = 10 m/s

Check it:

KE = (1/2)*0.5*(10^2)

KE = 25J

yep, it's right!

You are in your car driving on a highway at 23 m/s when you glance in the passenger-side mirror (a convex mirror with radius of
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

v = 26. 88 m/s +23 m/s

Explanation:

u = 23 m/s, r = 150 cm, u₁ = 2.0 m/s, s =2.0 m

\frac{1}{s} +\frac{1}{s'} = \frac{2}{R}

\frac{1}{2.0 m} +\frac{1}{s'} = \frac{2}{1.50 m}

Solve s'

\frac{1}{s'}  = \frac{2}{1.50 m} - \frac{1}{2.0 m}

\frac{1}{s'} =  1.833 m

s' = - 0.545 m

To determine the speed of the trick to the highway

\frac{ds}{dt}= \frac{s^2* \frac{ds}{dt}}{s' ^2} =\frac{2.0 ^2m * 2.0 m/s}{0.545^2m}

\frac{ds}{dt} = 26.88 m/s

Now to determine the velocity highway is going to be

v = ds/dt + u

v = 26. 88 m/s +23 m/s
