We can model a lightning bolt as a very long, straight wire. If a lightning bolt carries a current of 30 kA, and you are unfortu
Liula [17]

Answer:

Magnetic field experienced = 4.5 × 10⁻⁴ T

Explanation:

The magnetic field around an infinite straight current-carrying wire at a distance r from the wire is given by

B = (μ₀I)/(2πr)

B = ?

I = 20 KA = 20000 A

r = 8.9 m

μ₀ = magnetic permeability = 1.257 × 10⁻⁶ T.m/A

B = (1.257 × 10⁻⁶ × 20000)/(2π×8.9) = 4.5 × 10⁻⁴ T

Suppose two wagons, one with twice as much mass as the other, fly apart when a compressed spring that joins them is released. Th
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

The heavier wagon rolls 1/2 as fast as the lighter wagon.

Explanation:

When the compressed spring that joins them is released then the force acts on both wagons will be of equal magnitude but in the opposite direction. However as the mass of one wagon is twice that of other, so the acceleration  will become half of the heavier wagon in comparison with lighter one.

What are some ways to separate a mixture?
stiks02 [169]

la separación mecánica de un sólido de grano grueso, insoluble, en un líquido; consiste en verter cuidadosamente el líquido, después de que se ha sedimentado el sólido.  Por este proceso se separan dos líquidos miscibles, de diferente densidad, por ejemplola separación de un sólido disuelto en un líquido, por calentamiento, hasta que hierve y se transforma en vapor. Como no todas las sustancias se evaporan con la misma rapidez, el sólido disuelto se obtiene en forma pura, agua y aceite.
