Answer:

option (c)

Explanation:

According to the newton's third law, for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.

As the astronaut throw the tool away from the shuttle, it means the action force is in the direction away from the shuttle and according to Newton's third law, the reaction force is getting in the direction of shuttle.

A projectile is launched from the ground at an angle of 60o above the horizontal. At what point in its trajectory does it have t
Elodia [21]

Answer:

It's constant everywhere in its trajectory.

Explanation:

the projectile was launched with an initial velocity, the only acceleration that is affecting the projectile's velocity is gravity.

The acceleration of gravity is practically equal everywhere on earth, so during its trajectory, we have to take into consideration only the acceleration because of gravity.

This is only correct because the projectile was launched with an initial velocity and it's not accelerating from rest and then falls.

Electrons (mass m, charge –e) are accelerated from rest through a potential difference V and are then deflected by a magnetic fi
adell [148]

Answer:

r=\dfrac{1}{B}\sqrt{\dfrac{2Vm}{e}}

Explanation:

Let m and e are the mass and charge of an electron. It is accelerated from rest through a potential difference V and are then deflected by a magnetic field that is perpendicular to their velocity. Let v is the velocity of the electron. It can be calculated as :

\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2=eV

v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2eV}{m}}

When the electron enters the magnetic field, the centripetal force is balanced by the magnetic force as :

\dfrac{mv^2}{r}=evB

r=\dfrac{mv}{eB}

or

r=\dfrac{1}{B}\sqrt{\dfrac{2Vm}{e}}

So, the radius of the resulting electron trajectory is \dfrac{1}{B}\sqrt{\dfrac{2Vm}{e}}. Hence, this is the required solution.
