Answer:
x = 1.26 R
Explanation:
For this exercise let's find the magnetic field using the Biot-Savart law
B = μ₀ I/4π ∫ ds x r^ / r²
In the case of a loop or loop, the quantity ds is perpendicular to the distance r, therefore the vector product reduces to the algebraic product and the direction of the field is perpendicular to the current loop
suppose that the spiral eta in the yz plane, therefore the axis is in the x axis
B = μ₀ I/4π ∫ ds / (R² + x²)
The total magnetic field has two components, one parallel to the x axis and another perpendicular, this component is annual when integrating the entire loop, so the total field is
B = Bₓ i^
using trigonometry
Bₓ = B cos θ
we substitute
Bₓ = μ₀ I/4π ∫ ds cos θ / (x² + R²)
the cosine function is
cos θ = R /√(x² + R²)
The differential is
ds = R dθ
we substitute
Bₓ = μ₀ I/4π ∫ (R dθ) R /√( (x² + R²)³ )
we integrate from 0 to 2π
Bₓ =μ₀ I/4π R² / √(x² + R²)³ 2pi
therefore the final expression is
B = μ₀ I R²/ 2√(x² + R²)³ i^
In our case the distance is requested where B is half of B in the center of the bone loop x = 0
Spire center field x=0
B₀ = μ₀ I/2R
Field at the desired point (x)
B = B₀ / 2
we substitute
R² /√(x² + R²)³ = ½ 1 /R
2R³ =√(x² + R²)³
(x² + R²)³ = 4 (R²)³
(x²/R² + 1)³ = 4
The exact result is the solution of this equation, but it is quite laborious, we can find an approximate result assuming that the distance x is much greater than R (x »R)
B = μ₀ I/2x³
we substitute
R² / x³ = 1/2 1 / R
2R³ = x³
x = ∛2 R
x = 1.2599 R
The distance at which the magnetic field strength is half the strength of the field at the center of the loop in terms of R is 0.766 R
Suppose we consider a magnetic field located at point z on the axis of the current loop with radius R carrying a current (I), then the magnetic field can be represented as:
[tex]\mathbf{B = \dfrac{\mu_o}{2} \dfrac{IR^2}{(z^2+R^2)^{^{\dfrac{3}{2}}}}}[/tex]
And the field situated at the center of the loop is:
[tex]\mathbf{B_{z=0} =\dfrac{\mu_o}{2} \dfrac{I}{R} }[/tex]
Let consider a distance (z) on the axis of the loop, in which the magnetic field as a result of the loop is equal to half the strength of the magnetic field at the center of the loop;
Then;
[tex]\mathbf{B(z) = \dfrac{1}{2}B_{z=0}}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{\mu_o}{2} \dfrac{IR^2}{(z^2+R^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}} =\dfrac{1}{2} \Big (\dfrac{\mu_o}{2} \dfrac{I}{R} \Big )}[/tex]
Multiply both sides by (2);
[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{R^2}{(z^2+R^2)^{\frac{3}{2}}} = \dfrac{1}{2R}}[/tex]
Cross multiply;
[tex]\mathbf{2R^3 = (z^2 +R^2)^{\dfrac{3}{2}}}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{4R^6 = (z^2 +R^2)^3}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{z = \sqrt{4^{1/3} R^2 -R^2 }}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{z = R\sqrt{4^{1/3} -1 }}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{z = R\sqrt{0.587401052 }}[/tex]z = 0.766 R
Therefore, we can conclude that the distance at which the magnetic field strength is half the strength of the field at the center of the loop in terms of R is 0.766 R

A 1kg cannon ball.is fired horizontally with an initial velocity of 5m/s. If the cannon was atop a wall 20m above the ground, what is the total
change in KE?
Answer:
Ek = 196.2 [J]
Explanation:
The question concerns the KE kinetic energy.
That is, we must find the kinetic energy at the moment the cannon is fired and the kinetic energy of when the ball hits the ground after having fallen 20 meters.
At the moment when the ball is fired it is 20 meters above ground level. If the ground level is taken as the reference level of potential energy, where it is equal to zero, in this way when the ball is at the highest (20 meters) you have the maximum potential energy.
In this way, the energy in the initial state is equal to the sum of the kinetic energy plus the potential energy. As the energy is conserved this same energy will be present when the ball hits the ground, where the potential energy is zero and will have only kinetic energy.
[tex]E_{1}=E_{2}\\E_{k1}+E_{p1}=E_{k2}\\\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2} +m*g*h=E_{k2}\\E_{k2}=0.5*1*(5)^{2} +1*9.81*20\\E_{k2}=208.7[J][/tex]
The kinetic energy in the initial state can be easily calculated by means of the following equation.
[tex]E_{k1}=\frac{1}{2} *m*v^{2}\\E_{k1}=0.5*1*(5)^{2}\\E_{k1}=12.5 [J][/tex]
Therefore the change in KE
[tex]E_{k} = 208.7 - 12.5\\E_{k} = 196.2 [J][/tex]
Two blocks with different masses are dropped, hitting the ground with the same velocity. Which of the following is true?
They have same change in velocity but different changes in kinetic energy
The lighter object started at a smaller height.
The heavier object started at a smaller height
They started at the same height
They have same change in kinetic energy but different changes in velocity
Answer: • They have same change in velocity but different changes in kinetic energy
•They started at the same height.
Explanation:
First and foremost, we need to note that both balls have thesame acceleration due to gravity and due to this, even though they've different masses, they'll fall at same speed.
Also, since kinetic energy that's, the energy relating to motion of a mass, us dependent on mass and speed, their kinetic energy will be different.
Therefore, based in the explanation, the correct options are:
• They have same change in velocity but different changes in kinetic energy
•They started at the same height.
An ideal gas expands quasi-statically and isothermally from a state with pressurepand volumeVto a state with volume 4V. How much heat is added to the expanding gas?
Answer:
Q = PV(In 4)
Explanation:
We are told that the volume expands from V to a state with volume 4V.
Thus, initial volume is V and Final volume is 4V.
We want to find How much heat is added to the expanding gas.
For an isothermal process, the work done is calculated from;
W = nRT(In(V_f/V_i))
Where;
V_f is final volume
V_i is initial volume
Thus;
W = nRT(In(4V/V))
W = nRT(In 4)
Now, from ideal gas equation, we know that;
PV = nRT
Thus;
W = PV(In 4)
Now from first law of thermodynamics, we know that internal energy is zero and thus; Q = W
Where Q is quantity of heat
Thus;
Q = PV(In 4)

A projector lens projects an image from a 6.35 cm wide LCD screen onto a
screen 3.25 m wide. If the focal length of the projector lens is 13.8 cm, the screen
must be how far from the projector
Answer:
For any given projector, the width of the image (W) relative to the throw distance (D) is know as the throw ratio D/W or distance over width. So for example, the most common projector throw ratio is 2.0. This means that for each foot of image width, the projector needs to be 2 feet away or D/W = 2/1 = 2.0.

Aluminum wire with a diameter of 0.8650 mm is wound onto a spool. The wire is insulated, but you have access to both ends. The resistivity of aluminum at 20.0 °C is 2.65 x 10^-8 Ω-m. You measure the resistance of the wire at that temperature, and it is 2.48 Ω. What is the length of the wire?
a. 8.10 x 10^4 m
b. 22.0 m
c. 5.68 m
d. 0.111 m
e. 55.0 m
Answer:
e. 55.0 m
Explanation:
Given;
diameter of the aluminum wire, d = 0.865 mm
radius of the wire, r = d/2 = 0.4325 mm = 0.4325 x 10⁻³ m
resistivity of the wire, ρ = 2.65 x 10⁻⁸ Ω-m
resistance of the wire, R = 2.48 Ω
The resistance of a wire is given by;
[tex]R = \frac{\rho \ L}{A} \\\\[/tex]
where;
L is length of the wire
A is area of the wire = πr² = π(0.4325 x 10⁻³ )² = 5.877 x 10⁻⁷ m²
Substitute the givens and solve for L,
[tex]L = \frac{RA}{\rho} \\\\L = \frac{(2.48)(5.877*10^{-7})}{2.65*10^{-8}}\\\\L = 55.0 \ m[/tex]
Therefore, the length of the wire is 55.0 m
student measures the weight of a bag of bananas with a spring balance.
Describe what is inside a spring balance and explain how it works.
A spring balance measures the weight of an object by opposing the force of gravity acting with force of an extending spring. May be used to determine mass as well as weight by recalibrating the scale. Some spring balances are available in gram or kilogram markings and are used to measure the mass of an object. Spring balances consist of a cylindrical tube with a spring inside. One end (at the top) is fixed to an adjuster which can be used to calibrate the device. The other end is attached to a hook on which you can hang masses etc.
5.List the four goals of Psychology. Give your own example for each one using a behavior
Answer:
describe, explain, predict, and change/control behavior.
Explanation:
describe: What are they doing? -Pavlov noticed that dogs were salivating when they would see his lab assistant before food was presented to them. This observation acted as a description of what was happening to them.
explain: Why are they doing that?- Pavlov started to look into why they were doing it. There was a stimulus, the assistant giving them food in the past to where they started to salivate at the sight of the lab assistant
predict: What would happen if I responded in this way?- Pavlov predicted that he could get the same reaction if he used a bell as a stimulus. Using this he was able to condition dogs to salivate at the ring of the bell.
change/control: What can I do to get them to stop doing that? Because of this discovery we can use conditioning today. For example, in the classroom teachers can use conditioning with their students to make it easier, parents to teach their children right from wrong and to have good behavior. (you do this bad thing you get time out, do a good thing and I will praise you, etc) It can be used when training employees and many other places.

An airtight box, having a lid of area 80.0 cm^2, is partially evacuated. Atmospheric pressure is 1.01 Times 10^5 Pa. A force of 108 lb is required to pull the lid off the box. The pressure in the box was:_________.
Answer:
5×10^4Pa
Explanation:
Given force of 108 lb is required to pull the lid off the box,
To convert "Ib"to Newton ,we use conversation rate below
1 pounds = 4.4482216282509 newtons
Then 108 lb=x Newton
Cross multiply we have
X= 480.41Newton
The force that is needed to open the lid is F and pressure P.
We know that Pressure= Force/Area
Area is given as 80.0 cm^2, we can convert to m^2 for unit consistency since 1cm^2= 0.001m^2 then
80.0 cm^2 = 80×10^-4m^2
Substitute to the equation of the pressure we have
P= 480.41Newton/(80×10^4m^2)
P=6×10^4 Pa
The pressure in the box will be difference between the initial pressure and final pressure
=( 1.01 ×10^5 Pa)-(6×10^4 Pa)
= 50100Pa
= 5×10^4Pa
Therefore, The pressure in the box was
5×10^4Pa

ounces. Round your answer to 2
decimal places. **There are 29.57
milliliters in 1 fluid ounce***
Answer:
451 milliliters equals 15.25 fluid ounces
Explanation:
The rule of three or is a way of solving problems of proportionality between three known values and an unknown value, establishing a relationship of proportionality between all of them. That is, what is intended with it is to find the fourth term of a proportion knowing the other three.
To solve a direct rule of three, the following formula must be followed:
a ⇒ b
c ⇒ x
So: [tex]x=\frac{c*b}{a}[/tex]
The direct rule of three is the rule applied in this case where there is a change of units.
In this case, the rule of three can be applied in the following way: if there are 29.57 milliliters in 1 fluid ounce, in 451 milliliters how many fluid ounces are there?
[tex]fluid ounces=\frac{451 mL*1 fluid ounce}{29.57 mL}[/tex]
fluid ounces= 15.25
451 milliliters equals 15.25 fluid ounces

A freshly caught catfish is placed on a spring scale, and it oscillates up and down with a period of 0.19 s. If the spring constant of the scale is 2330 N/m, what is the mass of the catfish?
Answer:
The mass of the catfish is 2.13 kg
Explanation:
Period of oscillation, T = 0.19 s
spring constant, k = 2330 N/m
The period of oscillation of the spring is given by;
[tex]T = 2\pi \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }\\\\\frac{T}{2\pi} = \sqrt{\frac{m}{k} }\\\\\frac{T^2}{4\pi^2} = \frac{m}{k}\\\\m = \frac{kT^2}{4\pi^2}[/tex]
where;
m is mass of the catfish
substitute the given values and solve for m;
[tex]m = \frac{kT^2}{4\pi^2} \\\\m = \frac{(2330)(0.19)^2}{4\pi^2} \\\\m = 2.13 \ kg[/tex]
Therefore, the mass of the catfish is 2.13 kg
The x and y coordinates of a particle at any time t are x = 5t - 3t2 and y = 5t respectively, where x and y are in meter and t in second. The speed of the particle at t = 1 second is
Answer:
[tex]v=\sqrt{26}~m/s[/tex]
Explanation:
Parametric Equation of the Velocity
Given the position of the particle at any time t as
[tex]r(t) = (x(t),y(t))[/tex]
The instantaneous velocity is the first derivative of the position:
[tex]v(t)=(v_x(t),v_y(t))=(x'(t),y'(t))[/tex]
The speed can be calculated as the magnitude of the velocity:
[tex]v=\sqrt{v_x^2+v_y^2}[/tex]
We are given the coordinates of the position of a particle as:
[tex]x=5t-3t^2[/tex]
[tex]y=5t[/tex]
The coordinates of the velocity are:
[tex]v_x(t)=(5t-3t^2)'=5-6t[/tex]
[tex]v_y(t)=(5t)'=5[/tex]
Evaluating at t=1 s:
[tex]v_x(1)=5-6(1)=-1[/tex]
[tex]v_y(1)=5[/tex]
The velocity is:
[tex]v=\sqrt{(-1)^2+5^2}[/tex]
[tex]v=\sqrt{1+25}[/tex]
[tex]\mathbf{v=\sqrt{26}~m/s}[/tex]
The earth's radius is 6.37×106m; it rotates once every 24 hours.What is the speed of a point on the earth's surface located at 3/4 of the length of the arc between the equator and the pole, measured from equator? (Hint: what is the radius of the circle in which the point moves?) Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
Answer:
v = 120 m/s
Explanation:
We are given;
earth's radius; r = 6.37 × 10^(6) m
Angular speed; ω = 2π/(24 × 3600) = 7.27 × 10^(-5) rad/s
Now, we want to find the speed of a point on the earth's surface located at 3/4 of the length of the arc between the equator and the pole, measured from equator.
The angle will be;
θ = ¾ × 90
θ = 67.5
¾ is multiplied by 90° because the angular distance from the pole is 90 degrees.
The speed of a point on the earth's surface located at 3/4 of the length of the arc between the equator and the pole, measured from equator will be:
v = r(cos θ) × ω
v = 6.37 × 10^(6) × cos 67.5 × 7.27 × 10^(-5)
v = 117.22 m/s
Approximation to 2 sig. figures gives;
v = 120 m/s

The CEO, ellen misk, left her martian office but accidentally left a cylindricall can of coke (3.1 inches in diameter, 5.42 inches in height) on her desk. If the can exerts a pressure of 510 Pascals, what is the specific gravity of the can?
Answer:
Specific Gravity = 0.378
Explanation:
First, we will find the force exerted by the can on the table. This force will be equal to the weight of the can:
Pressure = Force/Area = Weight/Area
Weight = Pressure*Area
where,
Area = πdiameter²/4 = π[(3.1 in)(0.0254 m/1 in)]²/4 = 4.8 x 10⁻³ m²
Weight = (510 N/m²)(4.8 x 10⁻³ m²)
Weight = 2.48 N
Now, the weight is given as:
Weight = mg
2.48 N = m(9.8 m/s²)
m = (2.48 N)/(9.8 m/s²)
m = 0.25 kg
Now, we calculate volume of can:
Volume = (Area)(Height) = (4.8 x 10⁻³ m²)(5.42 in)(0.0254 m/1 in)
Volume = 6.6 x 10⁻⁴ m³
Hence, the density of can will be:
Density of Can = m/Volume = 0.25 kg/6.6 x 10⁻⁴ m³
Density of Can = 378.32 kg/m³
So, the specific gravity of Can will be:
Specific Gravity = Density of Can/Density of Water
Specific Gravity = (378.32 kg/m³)/(1000 kg/m³)
Specific Gravity = 0.378

A ball is thrown vertically upward with an initial velocity of 23 m/s. What are its position and velocity after 2 s?
Answer:
The position of the ball after 2 s is 26.4 mThe velocity of the ball after 2 s is 3.4 m/sExplanation:
Given;
initial velocity of the ball, u = 23 m/s
time of motion, t = 2 s
The position of the ball after 2 s is given by;
h = ut - ¹/₂gt²
h = (23 x 2) - ¹/₂ x 9.8 x 2²
h = 46 - 19.6
h = 26.4 m
The velocity of the ball after 2 s is given by;
v² = u² + 2(-g)h
v² = u² - 2gh
v² = 23² - (2 x 9.8 x 26.4)
v² = 529 - 517.44
v² = 11.56
v = √11.56
v = 3.4 m/s

velocity (u2) = -1.5 m/s [negative because it is in the opposite direction]
Speed and Direction of Ball 2:
We are told that the balls stick together after the collision
We can say that the balls have the same velocity since they are sticking together
So, Final velocity of Ball 1 (v1) = Final velocity of Ball 2 (v2) = V m/s
According to the law of conservation of momentum
m1u1 + m2u2 = m1v1 + m2v2
replacing the variables
1.5(2) + (2.5)(-1.5) = V (1.5 + 2.5) [v1 = v2 = V]
3 + (-3.75) = 4V
-0.75 = 4V
V = -0.75/4 [dividing both sides by 4]
V = -0.1875 m/s
Hence, the balls will move at a velocity of 0.1875 m/s in the Leftward direction
