A 10-cmcm -long wire is pulled along a U-shaped conducting rail in a perpendicular magnetic field. The total resistance of the wire and rail is 0.35 ΩΩ . Pulling the wire with a force of 1.1 NN causes 3.5 WW of power to be dissipated in the circuit.
Added by Raquel F.
Step 1
The power dissipated in a circuit can be calculated using the formula: \[ P = I^2 R \] where \( P \) is the power (in watts), \( I \) is the current (in amperes), and \( R \) is the resistance (in ohms). Show more…
