ELECTROSTATIC:

relating to stationary electric charges or fields as opposed to electric currents.

NEUTRAL:

nor negative nor positive/having no charge

POSITIVELY CHARGED:

positive charge occurs when the number of protons exceeds the number of electrons

NEGATIVELY CHARGED:

negative charge occurs when the number of electrons exceeds the number of protons.

COULOMB:

SI unit for electric charge. One coulomb is equal to the amount of charge from a current of one ampere flowing for one second.

MICROCOULOMB:

a unit of electrical charge equal to one millionth of a coulomb.

NANOCOULOMB:

Nanocoulombs are a unit of charge 1,000,000,000 times smaller than Coulomb.

CONSERVATION OF CHARGE:

constancy of the total electric charge in the universe or in any specific chemical or nuclear reaction

QUANTISATION OF CHARGE:

Charge quantization is the principle that the charge of any object is an integer multiple of the elementary charge.

A straight wire of length 0.56 m carries a conventional current of 0.4 amperes. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field made
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic field made by current in the wire is 3.064 x 10⁻⁶ T.

Explanation:

Given;

length of the straight wire, L = 0.56 m

conventional current, I = 0.4 A

distance of magnetic field from the wire, r = 2.6 cm = 0.026 m

To determine magnitude of magnetic field made by current in the wire, we will apply Bio-Savart Law;

B = \frac{\mu_o}{4\pi r} \frac{LI}{\sqrt{r^2 +(L/2)^2} } \\\\B = \frac{4\pi *10^{-7}}{4\pi *0.026} \frac{0.56*0.4}{\sqrt{(0.026)^2 +(0.56/2)^2} }\\\\B = 3.846*10^{-6}(0.7966)\\\\B = 3.064*10^{-6} \ T

Therefore, the magnitude of the magnetic field made by current in the wire is 3.064 x 10⁻⁶ T.

Two of the three tuning forks have known frequencies. When a 510 Hz. fork and the unknown fork are struck together, four beats p
Vikki [24]
4 Hz is the difference between 510 and the unknown. 
<span>Therefore the unknown is either 514 or 506. </span>

<span>If 505 and 506 were struck together, the diff would be 1 Hz </span>
<span>If 505 and 514 were struck toghether, the diff would be 9 Hz which would be difficult to count accurately, </span>

<span>Therefore the unknown is 514</span>

A force of 6.0 N gives a 2.0 kg block an acceleration of 3.0
Semenov [28]

Explanation:

The Net Force of the object can be written by:

Fnet = ma

where m is the mass of the object in <em>kg</em>

a is the acceleration of the object in <em>m/s^2</em>

Hence by applying the formula we get:

Fnet = (2.0)(3.0)

= 6N

We also know that Net force is also the sum of all forces acting on an object. In this case Friction and the Pushing Force is acting on the object. Hence we can write that:

Fnet = Pushing Force + (-Friction)

6N = 6N - Friction

Friction = 0N

Hence the<u> </u><u>f</u><u>orce of friction is 0N.</u>

A simple harmonic wave of wavelength 18.7 cm and amplitude 2.34 cm is propagating along a string in the negative x-direction at
storchak [24]

Answer

given,

wavelength = λ = 18.7 cm

                    = 0.187 m

amplitude , A = 2.34 cm

v = 0.38 m/s

A)  angular frequency = ?

     f = \dfrac{v}{\lambda}

     f = \dfrac{0.38}{0.187}

     f =2.03\ Hz

angular frequency ,

ω = 2π f

ω = 2π x 2.03

ω = 12.75 rad/s

B) the wave number ,

      K = \dfrac{2\pi}{\lambda}

     K= \dfrac{2\pi}{0.187}

    K =33.59\ m^{-1}

C)

as the wave is propagating in -x direction, the sign is positive between x and t

y ( x ,t) = A sin(k  x - ω t)

y ( x ,t) = 2.34  x  sin(33.59 x - 12.75 t)
