Textbook Question

Chapter 6, Problem 14P

A 17,000-kg jet takes off from an aircraft carrier via a catapult (Fig. 6-39a). The gases thrust out from the jet's engines exert a constant force of 130 kN on the jet; the force exerted on the jet by the catapult is plotted in Fig. 6-39b. Determine the work done on the jet: (a) by the gases expelled by its engines during launch of the jet; and (b) by the catapult during launch of the jet.

Three long, straight wires are mounted on the vertices of an equilateral triangle as shown in the figure. The wires carry currents of I₁ = 3.50 A, I2 = 5.50 A, and I3 = 8.50 A. Each side of the triangle has a length of 34.0 cm, and the point (A) is located half way between (11) and (12) along one of the sides. Find the magnitude of the magnetic field at point (A). Solve in Teslas (T). I₁

Number There are four charges, each with a magnitude of 2.38 μC. Two are positive and two are negative. The charges are fixed to the corners of a 0.132-m square, one to a corner, in such a way that the net force on any charge is directed toward the center of the square.
