<span>Short-range forecasts are more accurate than longer range ones. Short term forecasts may use mathematical techniques such as moving averages and, exponential smoothing. Longer term forecasts not only use different methodologies, such as qualitative vs. quantitative, they also tend to consider different issues.</span>
Answer:
Downwards
Explanation:
Using Fleming's right hand rule, where the middle finger represents the negative charge moving in the south to north direction, the fore finger represents the magnetic field which points in the east to west direction.
If we are to follow this orientation and place the thumb, middle finger and fore-finger at right angles to each other, the thumb represents the direction of the magnetic force on the charge.
In this case, the magnetic force points downwards after setting the other orientations of the magnetic field and the negative charge's direction.
Answer:
To your left
Explanation:
The direction of the force exerted on charged particle due to a magnetic field is given by the right-hand-rule, where:
- The index finger indicates the direction of motion of the electron
- the middle finger gives the direction of the magnetic field
- the thumb gives the direction of the force if the particle is positively charged - otherwise, the direction is reversed
in this case, we have an electron (so, a negatively charged particle):
- The direction of motion (index finger) is horizontal, toward you
- The electron begins to curve upward as it enters the field, so this means that the force exerted on the electrons is upward --> the thumb must point downward (because the electron is negatively charged)
- The index finger gives us the direction of the magnetic field: therefore, to your left.
Answer:
Ek1 = 900000 [J]
Ek1 = 400000 [J]
Explanation:
In order to solve this problem we must remember that kinetic energy is defined as the product of mass by velocity squared by a medium. Therefore using the following equation we have:

where:
m = mass = 500 [kg]
v1 = 60 [m/s]
So we have:
Ek1 = 0.5*500*(60^2)
Ek1 = 900000 [J]
and:
Ek2 = 0.5*500*(40^2)
Ek2 = 400000 [J]
