Electric field strength can be calculated as resistivity of copper multiplied by the current density.
where
p= 1.72 x 10^-8 <span>ohm meter
diameter = 2.05mm=.00205 m
current = 2.75 A
</span>First, we determine the current density:
current density = current / cross-sectional area
Calculating the cross-sectional area
cross-sectional area = pi.(d/2)^2;
cross-sectional area = 3.3 006x10-6 m^2
Substituting values gives us
current density = 2.75A/3.3006x 10-6m^2
current density=35.55 x10^2 A/m^2
Thus, electric field strength =1.72 x 10^-8 ohm meter x 35.55 x10^2 A/m^2
Resulting in electric field strength of 46.415 Volts/m.

A man is dragging a trunk up the loading ramp of a mover’s truck. The ramp has a slope angle of 20.0°, and the man pulls upward
Sav [2217]

Response:

(a) 104 N

(b) 52 N

Clarification:

Provided Information

Incline angle of the ramp: 20°

F forms a 30° angle with the ramp

The parallel component of F along the ramp is Fx = 90 N.

The perpendicular component of F is Fy.

(a)

Consider the +x direction pointing up the slope, and the +y direction perpendicular to the ramp's surface.

Using the Pythagorean theorem, decompose F into its x-component:

Fx=Fcos30°

To find F:

F= Fx/cos30°

Insert the value for Fx based on the given info:

Fx=90 N/cos30°

   =104 N

(b) Calculate the y-component of r using the Pythagorean theorem:

     Fy = Fsin 30°

Substituting for F from part (a):

     Fy = (104 N) (sin 30°)  

          = 52 N

Ostrovityanka [2204]
According to the law of conservation of momentum, the total momentum before a collision equals the total momentum after the collision. When two carts collide and lock together, they form a single body with a certain mass and velocity. Based on the definition of momentum, we will compute the final velocity.

Daniel takes his two dogs, Pauli the Pointer and Newton the Newfoundland, out to a field and lets them loose to exercise. Both d
Maru [2337]

Answer:

4.05 m/s

Explanation:

We will express the varying velocities as vectors.

Newton moves northward at 3.90 m/s from Daniel's stationary position.

V_n = 3.9 j

Assuming Pauli runs relative to Daniel at velocity X.

The relative velocity of Newton as seen by Pauli will be

3.9 j - X

Given that

the relative velocity of Newton with respect to moving Pauli = 1.1 i (1.1 towards the east).

Thus,

3.9 j - X = 1.1 i

X = -1.1 i + 3.9 j.

Magnitude of X

X² = 1.1² + 3.9²

X = 4.05 m/s

Therefore, Pauli runs relative to Daniel at 4.05 m/s.

The direction will be west of north at an angle θ,

Tan θ = 1.1 / 3.9
