7. Imagine a wire is set to have a 6.0 Amp current traveling into the screen at position -2.5 m. A second wire is placed at +3.0 m and carries an 8.0 Amp current out of the screen. Calculate the strength of the magnetic field at x=0 m as well as at x = -3.0 m. Be sure to indicate direction. Show your work, and verify your result with the simulation. Reminder: the magnetic field due to a current-carrying wire is given as B = (μ0/2π)*(I/r).

Solutions

Expert Solution

Part 1.

To calculate the strength of the magnetic field at x=0 m

B=(0/2)(I1/d1)+(0/2)(I2/d2)=(410-7/2)(6/2.5)+(410-7/2)(8/3)=1.0110-6 T in downward direction(given by right hand curl rule)

Part 2.

To calculate the strength of the magnetic field at x=-3m

B=(0/2)(I1/d1)-(0/2)(I2/d2)=(410-7/2)(6/0.5)-(410-7/2)(8/6)=2.1310-6T in upward direction(given by right hand curl rule)

Imagine you have two wire loops lying next to each other on a table. The first one is connected to an AC power supply (like a wall outlet), producing a time-varying current through the wire, which in turn produces a time-varying magnetic field. The second wire loop reacts to this time varying magnetic field according to Faraday's law. Describe the current produced in the second loop.

Imagine that you have to assign taxonomic names to a lizards. Each of the 7 lizards represents a different species. You will then need to classify them by genus, class, etc. Your taxonomic names will be based on morphological characters (e.g., individuals with dewlaps may represent one genus, individuals with tail spots may represent another). Lizards of the same taxonomic level may share a single character or multiple characters, but remember, each taxonomic name at a particular level cannot overlap...
