Chapter 4: Q12DQ (page 947)

Two very long, parallel wires carry equal currents in opposite directions. (a) Is there any place that their magnetic fields completely cancel? If so, where? If not, why not? (b) How would the answer to part (a) change if the currents were in the same direction?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) No there is no any place where complete magnetic field is canceled.

(b) Yes the answer of first part can be change if current in the middle point of the distance between two wires.

Step by step solution

01

Definition of current

The term current may be defined as the ratio of charge and time.

02

Explain the reason of question

No there is no any place where complete magnetic field is canceled. And yes the answer of first part can be change if current in the middle point of the distance between two wires.

Hence, there is no any place where complete magnetic field is canceled. Yes the answer of first part can be change if current in the middle point of the distance between two wires.

In the circuit shown in Fig. Q26.4, three identical light bulbs are connected to a flashlight battery. How do the brightnesses of the bulbs compare? Which light bulb has the greatest current passing through it? Which light bulb has the greatest potential difference between its terminals? What happens if bulb A is unscrewed? Bulb B? Bulb C? Explain your reasoning.

Question: A conducting sphere is placed between two charged parallel plates such as those shown in Figure. Does the electric field inside the sphere depend on precisely where between the plates the sphere is placed? What about the electric potential inside the sphere? Do the answers to these questions depend on whether or not there is a net charge on the sphere? Explain your reasoning.

A 1500-W electric heater is plugged into the outlet of a 120-V circuit that has a 20-A circuit breaker. You plug an electric hair dryer into the same outlet. The hair dryer has power settings of 600 W, 900 W, 1200 W, and 1500 W. You start with the hair dryer on the 600-W setting and increase the power setting until the circuit breaker trips. What power setting caused the breaker to trip?

BIO Transmission of Nerve Impulses. Nerve cells transmit electric

signals through their long tubular axons. These signals propagate due to a

sudden rush of Na+ions, each with charge +e, into the axon. Measurements

have revealed that typically about 5.6脳1011Na+ions enter each meter of the

axon during a time of . What is the current during this inflow of charge

in a meter of axon?

You want to produce three 1.00-mm-diameter cylindrical wires,

each with a resistance of 1.00 鈩� at room temperature. One wire is gold, one

is copper, and one is aluminum. Refer to Table 25.1 for the resistivity

values. (a) What will be the length of each wire? (b) Gold has a density of1.93脳10-4kgm3.

What will be the mass of the gold wire? If you consider the current price of gold, is

this wire very expensive?
