The magnetic field at the equator points north. If you throw a positively charged object (for example, a baseball with some elec

trons removed) to the east, what is the direction of the magnetic force on the object? 1. Toward the east 2. Upward 3. Toward the west 4. Downward

Answer:

The magnetic force points in the positive z-direction, which corresponds to the upward direction.

Option 2 is correct, the force points in the upwards direction.

Explanation:

The magnetic force on any charge is given as the cross product of qv and B

F = qv × B

where q = charge on the ball thrown = +q (Since it is positively charged)

v = velocity of the charged ball = (+vî) (velocity is in the eastern direction)

B = Magnetic field = (+Bj) (Magnetic field is in the northern direction; pointing forward)

F = qv × B = (+qvî) × (Bj)

F =

| î j k |

| qv 0 0|

| 0 B 0

F = i(0 - 0) - j(0 - 0) + k(qvB - 0)

F = (qvB)k N

The force is in the z-direction.

We could also use the right hand rule; if we point the index finger east (direction of the velocity), the middle finger northwards (direction of the magnetic field), the thumb points in the upward direction (direction of the magnetic force). Hence, the magnetic force is acting upwards, in the positive z-direction too.

Hope this Helps!!!

If a participant were holding two different weights in their hands and the jnd for a 10-gram weight was 1 gram, what should the
Nataliya [291]

The jnd for a 100-gram weight, according to Weber's law will be 10 gram.

<h3>What is Weber's law?</h3>

It should be noted that Weber's law asserts that the nature of any given stimulus will always affect how change is perceived. In other words, the size, weight, importance, etc. of the prior situation and the significance of the change both influence whether a change will be observed.

In this case, it was given that the jnd for a 10-gram weight was 1 gram, therefore, the jnd for 100 gram will be;

= 100 / 10

= 10 gram

Therefore, jnd for a 100-gram weight, according to Weber's law will be 10 grams.

A bucket of water is being raised from a well using a rope. If the bucket of water has a mass of 6.2 kg, how much force (in N) m
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

6.2N force

Explanation:

According to Newton's second law of motion, force is equal to the product of the mass of a body and its acceleration. Mathematically,

Force = mass × acceleration

Given mass of bucket of water = 6.2kg

acceleration of the bucket = 1m/s²

Force exerted on the rope = 6.2 × 1

= 6.2N

A bullet with a mass 2.25g is fired up into the air with a velocity of 187.5 m/s. What is the maximum height of the bullet
Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

1793.7m

Explanation:

From the principle of conservation of energy; the kinetic energy substended by the object equals the potential energy sustain by the object when it gets to its maximum position.

Now the kinetic energy; is

K.E = 1/2 × m × v2

Where m is mass

v is velocity

Hence.

K.E = 1/2 × 2.25 × (187.5)^2

Now this should be same with the potential energy which is given as;

P.E = m× g× h

Where m is mass of object

g is acceleration of free fall due to gravity = 9.8m/S2

h is maximum height substain by the object.

Hence P.E = 2.25 × 9.8 × h

From the foregoing analysis of energy conversation it implies;

1/2 × 2.25 × (187.5)^2 =2.25 × 9.8 × h

=> 1/2 × (187.5)^2 = 9.8 × h

=>1/2 × (187.5)^2 / 9.8 = h

=> 1793.69m = h

h= 1793.69m

h =1793.7m to 1 decimal place
