Hi!
The perpendicular distance 2.4cm, is much less than the distance to both endpoints of the wire, which is aprox 1m. Then the edge effect is negligible at this field point, and we can aproximate the wire as infinitely long.
The electric filed of an infinitely long wire is easy to calculate. Let's call z the axis along the wire. Because of its simmetry (translational and rotational), the electric field E must point in the radial direction, and it cannot depende on coordinate z. To calculate the field Gauss law is used, as seen in the image, with a cylindrical gaussian surface. The result is:
Then the electric field at the point of interest is estimated as:
Current at all points of a series circuit must be the same, because there's no place in the circuit where electrons are being manufactured, and no place where they're leaking out and falling on the floor. The nimber of electrons that leaves the loop is the same number that entered it.
I'm not sure what is nmeant by "p.d. remains different" .
Answer:
I think the answer is B, I am not for sure
I'm trying to think of something that will give you the biggest bang for your buck, meaning what would give you the most number of energy transformations in their use.
Wind energy uses those great big windmills that transform wind into electrical energy. The wind is caused by the sun (which has nuclear energy, light energy and the earth's rotation which is not related to the sun but is mechanical energy). To start with you use mechanical energy. That energy drives a generator that stores it's energy in a battery. You have changed electrical energy into chemical energy. The batteries, on a calm day take over and provide electrical energy that must be transported to the consumers using it. Proponents of wind energy say that it is pollution free. It's not exactly true. The batteries used have to be manufactured (not a clean industry) and when they wear out, they pollute the environment if they cannot be recharged with new battery plates and acid (chemical).
Added to which wind energy is very noisy (sound energy) which has been linked to serious diseases.
