A straight, stiff, horizontal wire of length 20 cm and mass 100 g is connected to a source of emf by light, flexible leads. A magnetic field of 1.33 T is horizontal and perpendicular to the wire. Find the current necessary to float the wire, that is, find the current for which the magnetic force balances the weight of the wire.

Scout feels ill one day before school. her mother puts a thermometer in her mouth and the temperature begins to climb to 100°f. what is happening between the cooler thermometer and scout's body? a) scout's body is applying a force to the particles in the thermometer. b) kinetic energy is being transferred from her mouth to the thermometer. c) potential energy is being lost by the thermometer and gained by scout's body. d) the potential energy stored in foods is converted to mechanical energy to raise the mercury in the thermometer.

Air conditioners not only cool air, but dry it as well. suppose that a room in a home measures 5.0m×9.0m×2.4m . if the outdoor temperature is 30 ∘c and the vapor pressure of water in the air is 85 % of the vapor pressure of water at this temperature, what mass of water must be removed from the air each time the volume of air in the room is cycled through the air conditioner? the vapor pressure for water at 30 ∘c is 31.8 torr.

Aspaceship starting from a resting position accelerates at a constant rate of 9.8 meters per second per second. how far will the spaceship travel if its final speed is 1 percent the speed of light (300,000,000 m/s)? a. 3.1 × 106 m b. 2.94 × 108 m c. 7.8 × 1010 m d. 4.6 × 1013 m
