Answer:

(a) The resistance of 25m of wire is 3 ohms

(b) the length of this wire that has resistance 22 ohms is 183.33 m

Explanation:

Given;

resistivity of the wire, ρ = 0.12 ohms per meter

(a) The resistance of 25m of wire is calculated as follows;

$R = \rho L\\\\R = 0.12 \ \frac{ohms}{m} \times 25\ m\\\\R = 3 \ ohms$

(b) the length of this wire that has resistance 22 ohms is calculated as;

$L = \frac{R}{\rho} \\\\L = \frac{22 \ ohms }{0.12 \ ohms/m} = 183.33 \ m$

A compound microscope is made with an objective lens (f0 = 0.900 cm) and an eyepiece (fe = 1.10 cm). The lenses are separated by

Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

-252.52

Explanation:

L = Distance between lenses = 10 cm

D = Near point = 25 cm

$f_o$ = Focal length of objective = 0.9 cm

$f_e$ = Focal length of eyepiece = 1.1 cm

Magnification of a compound microscope is given by

$m=-\frac{L}{f_o}\frac{D}{f_e}\\\Rightarrow m=-\frac{10}{0.9}\times \frac{25}{1.1}\\\Rightarrow m=-252.52$

The angular magnification of the compound microscope is -252.52

The magnetic field at the center of a 1.40-cm-diameter loop is 2.50 mT . PART A) What is the current in the loop?

NISA [10]

Explanation:

It is given that,

Diameter of loop, d = 1.4 cm

Radius of loop, r = 0.7 cm = 0.007 m

Magnetic field, $B=2.5\ mT=2.5\times 10^{-3}\ T$

(A) Magnetic field of a current loop is given by :

$B=\dfrac{\mu_oI}{2r}$

I is the current in the loop

$I=\dfrac{2Br}{\mu_o}$

$I=\dfrac{2\times 2.5\times 10^{-3}\times 0.007}{4\pi \times 10^{-7}}$

I = 27.85 A

(B) Magnetic field at a distance r from a wire is given by :

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

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

$r=\dfrac{4\pi \times 10^{-7}\times 27.85}{2\pi \times 2.5\times 10^{-3}}$

r = 0.00222 m

$r=2.2\times 10^{-3}\ m$

Hence, this is the required solution.
