- I’m wondering if I can get some help with a previous asked question... the answer that was explained to me differs from the answer in my textbook. I just want to make sure I’m understanding how to do this properly...the answer in the book says 262 nT where the answer given by a Bartleby expert was 2.08x10^-9T. Would you mind looking this over to see what the discrepancy is? Thanks! I’ll attach a photo of the worked out solution... The question reads: A current path shaped as shown in the figure below (in photo) produces a magnetic field at P, the center of the arc.

- A particle has a charge of q = +4.6 µC and is located at the origin. As the drawing shows, an electric field of Ex = +236 N/C exists along the +x axis. A magnetic field also exists, and its x and y components are Bx = +1.4 T and By = +1.1 T. Calculate the force (magnitude and direction) exerted on the particle by each of the three fields when it is (a) stationary, (b) moving along the +x axis at a speed of 345 m/s, and (c) moving along the +z axis at a speed of 345 m/s. +Z ہے By Ex Bx +xarrow_forwardlength period Vlength cm t Vcm Vx 1 19 0.8625 4.358898943540674 2 24 0.9667 4.898979485566356 3 29 1.1083 5.385164807134504 4 34 1.1958 5.830951894845301 5 39 1.2292 6.244997998398398 6 44 1.3625 6.6332495807108 49 1.4083 7 8 54 1.4542 7.3484692283495345 9 58 1.5375 7.615773105863909 10 63 1.6792 7.937253933193772 11 68 1.6875 8.246211251235321 period vs length 1.7 1.6 1.5 1.4 1.3 1.2 1.1 1 0.9 20 30 40 50 60 70 length (cm) Display Curve Fit Uncertainties period Curve: t = AVI A : 0.203 RMSE : 0.0313 s (s) popadarrow_forwardPlease check all possible answers.arrow_forward
- A nuclear fusion reaction in the Sun converts 4 H nuclei to 1 He-4 nucleus. Each Hydrogen nuclei is 1.007825u (an atomic mass unit); one Helium nucleus is 4.00268u. What is the mass lost in the process (in u)? What is the % of the original mass? Write down the equation that determines the energy produced in this process. Calculate the energy created from 1 kilogram of hydrogen fused. (with units kg & m/s, answer will be Joules) The Sun’s luminosity (or power) is 4 x 1026 Watts (=J/s). How many kilograms of hydrogen must be fused every second to maintain this luminosity? (hint: work backwards from the energy per second to the mass released to the amount of hydrogen required, using the results from the previous question.) The Sun’s mass is ~2x1030 kg. If 10% of this is Hydrogen available in the core, how long will the Sun be able to continue fusing hydrogen at this rate? This is considered the Sun's "lifetime".
