Answer:

<em><u>Solid</u> is the state in which matter maintains a fixed volume and shape; liquid is the state in which matter adapts to the shape of its container but varies only slightly in volume; and gas is the state in which matter expands to occupy the volume and shape of its container.</em>

The acceleration of the body is 2 m/s^2 while the deceleration is - 1.2 m/s^2.

<h3>What is the acceleration?</h3>

Let us recall that the acceleration is the change in the speed of a body with time. We have been told that the body accelerates for 3s and then decelerates to 2s. This implies that the total time that the object spent in motion is 5 s.

Thus;

v = u + at

v = final velocity

u = initial velocity

a = acceleration

t = time taken

v - u/t = a

a = 6 - 0/3

= 2 m/s^2

Again;

v - u/t = a

a = 0 - 6/5

a = - 1.2m/s^2

A wire lying along a y axis form y=0 to y=0.25 m carries a current of 2.0 mA in the negative direction of the axis. The wire ful

balu736 [363]

Answer:

FB = 0.187 N

Explanation:

To find the magnetic force FB in the wire you use the following formula:

$|\vec{F_B}|=ILBsin\theta\\\\L=0.25m\\\\|\vec{B}|=\sqrt{(0.3y)^2+(0.4y)^2}=0.5y \ T$

the angle between B and L is given by:

$\vec{L}\cdot\vec{B}=LBcos\theta\\\\\theta=cos^{-1}(\frac{\vec{L}\cdot\vec{B}}{LB})=cos^{-1}(\frac{0*0.3y+0.25*0.4y}{0.25*0.5y})=36.86\°$

Due to B depends on "y" you take into account the contribution of each element dy of the wire to the magnitude of the magnetic force. Thus, you have to integrate the following expression:

$|\vec{F_B}|=Isin\theta\int_0^{0.25}B(y)dy=Isin\theta\int_0^{0.25}(0.5y)dy\\\\|\vec{F_B}|=(2.0*10^{-3}A)(sin36.86\°)(0.5T)[\frac{0.25^2}{2}m]=0.187\ N$

hence, the magnitude of the magnetic force is 0.187N
