Don't know where to begin mag field question
i tried to solve the problem...can someone please check my work? i think i may have made a mistake somewhere along the way I = 300 is given for the question B for Point A = [μ0I / 2pi]*[(1/x) - (1/r+x)] = (4pi *10^-7)(300) / (2)(pi) * (1/1m) - (1/1.5m) = 1.97*10^-4 T B for Point B =...- dewdrop714

Circuit Breakers - tripping or not tripping?
Well 4186 is spec heat of water and 2093 is spef heat of ice. I also converted the temps to kelvins. Then I input them into the equations...I did Q1= (800)(4186)(305.93)=102*10^7 and Q2=(800)(2093)(287.93)=482*10^6. Then i got Q= Q1-Q2 = 542*10^6.- dewdrop714

Capacitance of circuit & RC time constant
Hmm I don't quite understand what you mean. I get the part about q being proportional to v so .75q~.75v. But being that the equation is q=q0(1-e^-t/RC), what would q0 be? And the whole RC time constant thing confuses me completely...like how can t=RC?- dewdrop714

Calculating the Ampere Rating of a Circuit Breaker
The problem statement: To save on heating costs, the owner of a greenhouse keeps 800kg of water around in barrels. During a winter day, the water is heated by the sun to 50 degrees Fahrenheit. During the night the water freezes into ice at 32 degrees Fahrenheit in 10 hours. An electrical...- dewdrop714
