What is the Inductance of Parallel Wires in a Circuit?

AI Thread Summary
The inductance of parallel wires in a circuit can be influenced by their length and configuration. A specific example involves calculating the inductance for wires with a length of 2m, width of 5cm, and radius of 1mm using a given formula. The initial calculation yielded an inductance of 3.3 x 10^-6 H, but the result was questioned for accuracy. Participants in the discussion provided assistance and clarification on the calculation process. Accurate inductance calculations are essential for understanding circuit behavior.

1. Two wires running parallel to each other in a circuit can provide an inductance that is adjustable with their length. For the loop shown below with length L=2m , width w=5cm , and wire radius a=1mm , find the inductance in H?

Homework Equations

3. I thought i could find the inductance by using the equation mu0/pi(L*ln((w-r)/r) + w*ln((L-r)/r) and i found 3.3*10^-6 but it don't seem good.
Could you help me?

Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanged mass'

Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
