A particle has a charge of q = +4.9 μC and is located at the origin. As the drawing shows, an electric field of Ex = +242 N/C ex

ists along the +x axis. A magnetic field also exists, and its x and y components are Bx = +1.9 T and By = +1.9 T. Calculate the force (magnitude and direction) exerted on the particle by each of the three fields when it is (a) stationary, (b) moving along the +x axis at a speed of 345 m/s, and (c) moving along the +z axis at a speed of 345 m/s.

a)

F_{E_x}=1.19\cdot 10^{-3}N (+x axis)

F_{B_x}=0

F_{B_y}=0

b)

F_{E_x}=1.19\cdot 10^{-3} N (+x axis)

F_{B_x}=0

F_{B_y}=3.21\cdot 10^{-3}N (+z axis)

c)

F_{E_x}=1.19\cdot 10^{-3} N (+x axis)

F_{B_x}=3.21\cdot 10^{-3} N (+y axis)

F_{B_y}=3.21\cdot 10^{-3}N (-x axis)

Explanation:

a)

The electric force exerted on a charged particle is given by

F=qE

where

q is the charge

E is the electric field

For a positive charge, the direction of the force is the same as the electric field.

In this problem:

q=+4.9\mu C=+4.9\cdot 10^{-6}C is the charge

E_x=+242 N/C is the electric field, along the x-direction

So the electric force (along the x-direction) is:

F_{E_x}=(4.9\cdot 10^{-6})(242)=1.19\cdot 10^{-3} N

towards positive x-direction.

The magnetic force instead is given by

F=qvB sin \theta

where

q is the charge

v is the velocity of the charge

B is the magnetic field

\theta is the angle between the directions of v and B

Here the charge is stationary: this means v=0, therefore the magnetic force due to each component of the magnetic field is zero.

b)

In this case, the particle is moving along the +x axis.

The magnitude of the electric force does not depend on the speed: therefore, the electric force on the particle here is the same as in part a,

F_{E_x}=1.19\cdot 10^{-3} N (towards positive x-direction)

Concerning the magnetic force, we have to analyze the two different fields:

- B_x: this field is parallel to the velocity of the particle, which is moving along the +x axis. Therefore, \theta=0^{\circ}, so the force due to this field is zero.

- B_y: this field is perpendicular to the velocity of the particle, which is moving along the +x axis. Therefore, \theta=90^{\circ}. Therefore, \theta=90^{\circ}, so the force due to this field is:

F_{B_y}=qvB_y

where:

q=+4.9\cdot 10^{-6}C is the charge

v=345 m/s is the velocity

B_y = +1.9 T is the magnetic field

Substituting,

F_{B_y}=(4.9\cdot 10^{-6})(345)(1.9)=3.21\cdot 10^{-3} N

And the direction of this force can be found using the right-hand rule:

- Index finger: direction of the velocity (+x axis)

- Middle finger: direction of the magnetic field (+y axis)

- Thumb: direction of the force (+z axis)

c)

As in part b), the electric force has not change, since it does not depend on the veocity of the particle:

F_{E_x}=1.19\cdot 10^{-3}N (+x axis)

For the field B_x, the velocity (+z axis) is now perpendicular to the magnetic field (+x axis), so the force is

F_{B_x}=qvB_x

And by substituting,

F_{B_x}=(4.9\cdot 10^{-6})(345)(1.9)=3.21\cdot 10^{-3} N

And by using the right-hand rule:

- Index finger: velocity (+z axis)

- Middle finger: magnetic field (+x axis)

- Thumb: force (+y axis)

For the field B_y, the velocity (+z axis) is also perpendicular to the magnetic field (+y axis), so the force is

F_{B_y}=qvB_y

And by substituting,

F_{B_y}=(4.9\cdot 10^{-6})(345)(1.9)=3.21\cdot 10^{-3} N

And by using the right-hand rule:

- Index finger: velocity (+z axis)

- Middle finger: magnetic field (+y axis)

- Thumb: force (-y axis)

Show how the alternative definition of power, found in your book, can be derived by substituting the definitions of work and spe
Harman [31]

Let us consider body moves a distance S due to the force F.

Hence the work by the body W = FS

If the force is not along the direction of displacement,then the work by a body for travelling a distance S will be -

                                       W=[ Fcos\theta]*S  where    Fcos\theta is the component of the force along the direction of displacement.

                                  Hence\ W= FScos\theta

                                                        = F.S

As per the question the power P is given as -

                                                  P=\frac{W}{\delta t}

                                                         =\frac{F.S}{\delta t}

                                                         = F.\frac{S}{\delta t}

                                                         = \ F.V

Hence alternative definition of power P = F.V

A vector points -43.0 units
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Explanation:

To find the direction of this vector we need o find the angle that has a tangent of the y-component over the x-component:

tan^{-1}(\frac{11.1}{-43.0})=-14.5 but since we are in Q2 we have to add 180 degrees to that angle giving us 165.5 degrees

If an object is projected upward from ground level with an initial velocity of 144144 ft per​ sec, then its height in feet after
Liula [17]

Answer:

4.5 s, 324 ft

Explanation:

The object is projected upward with an initial velocity of

v_0 = 144 ft/s

The equation that describes its height at time t is

s(t) = -16t^2 + 144 t (1)

where t, the time, is measured in seconds.

In order to find the time it takes for the object to reach the maximum height, we must find an expression for its velocity at time t, which can be found by calculating the derivative of the position, s(t):

v(t) = s'(t) = -32t +144 (2)

At the maximum heigth, the vertical velocity is zero:

v(t) = 0

Substituting into the equation above, we find the corresponding time at which the object reaches the maximum height:

0=-32t+144\\t=\frac{144}{32}=4.5 s

And by substituting this value into eq.(1), we also find the maximum height:

s(t) = -16(4.5)^2+144(4.5)=324 ft
