Three long wires all lie in an xy plane parallel to the x axis. They intersect the y axis at the origin, y = d, and y = 2d, where d = 10 cm. The two outer wires each carry a current of 6.8 A in the positive x direction.

1. What is the magnitude of the force on a 2.8 m section of either of the outer wires if the current in the center wire is 3.3 A.

(a) in the positive x direction and (b) in the negative x direction?

Ahollow metal sphere has 6 cm and 11 cm inner and outer radii, respectively. the surface charge density on the inside surface is −100nc/m2. the surface charge density on the exterior surface is:

The us government wants to allocate billions of dollars in the next 10 years to assure our future energy security. the funds will be spread among a variety of possible energy resources. where do you think the government should put the greatest support: solar energy, wind energy, clean coal, oil exploration, gas exploration, or a combination of sources? are there other efforts that should be explored? support your position with cited information for both questions.

In a system, when potential energy decreases, then entropy also decreases. true false
