engineering An object is acted upon by two forces $\mathbf{F}_1=20 \mathrm{i}+30 \mathrm{j}-$ $24 \mathbf{k}(\mathrm{kN})$ and $\mathbf{F}_2=-60 \mathbf{i}+20 \mathrm{j}+40 \mathrm{k}(\mathrm{kN})$. What is the magnitude of the total force acting on the object? Verified answer
physics A small loop of a wire (radius a) is held a distance z above the center of a large loop (raidus b). The planes of the two loops are parallel, and perpendicular to the common axis. Suppose current I flows in the big loop. Find the flux trough the little loop. (The little loop is so small that you may consider the field of the big loop to be essentially constant.) Suppose current I flows in the little loop. Find the flux trough the big loop. (The little loop is so small that you may treat it as a magnetic dipole.) Find the mutual inductance, and confirm that $M_{12}=M_{21}$. Verified answer Recommended textbook solutions
