The circumference of a circle is (2π · the circle's radius).

The length of a semi-circle is  (1π · the circle's radius) =

                                                 (π · 14.8) = 46.5 (rounded)

(The unit is the same as whatever the unit of the  14.8  is.)

An electron that has a velocity with x component 2.6 × 106 m/s and y component 2.4 × 106 m/s moves through a uniform magnetic fi
Scrat [10]

Answer with Explanation:

We are given that

v_x=2.6\times 10^6 m/s

v_y=2.4\times 10^6 m/s

B_x=0.029 T

B_y=-0.14 T

a.We have to find the magnitude of the magnetic force on the electron.

v\times B=\begin{vmatrix}i&j&k\\2.6\times 10^6&2.4\times 10^6&0\\0.029&-0.14&0\end{vmatrix}

v\times B=(-0.364-0.0696)\times 10^6 k=-0.4336\times 10^6 k

Charge on an electron,q=-1.6\times 10^{-19} C

F=q(v\times B)=\mid -1.6\times 10^{-19}(-0.4336)\times 10^6\mid =6.9\times 10^{-14} N

Force act along positive z- direction.

b.Charge on proton=q=1.6\times 10^{-19} C

F=\mid 1.6\times 10^{-19}(-0.4336)\times 10^6\mid =6.9\times 10^{-14} N

Name two devices we use generators in. Describe how they work.
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

There are two fundamental types of generators known as AC (alternating current) and DC (direct current) generators. While the technique of producing electricity is the same in both types, AC and DC power become different in terms of their applications – the way in which loads receive electric power.

Explanation:

An electric generator is a device that converts mechanical energy obtained from an external source into electrical energy as the output. ... Instead, it uses the mechanical energy supplied to it to force the movement of electric charges present in the wire of its windings through an external electric circuit.

At the Six Flags Great America amusement park in Gurnee, Illinois, there is a roller coaster that incorporates some of the lates
Citrus2011 [14]

Given that roller coaster is of tear drop shape

So the speed at the top is given as

v = 11 m/s

acceleration at the top is given as

a = 2.9 g

a = 2.9(9.8) = 28.42 m/s^2

now we know the formula of centripetal acceleration as

a = \frac{v^2}{R}

28.42 = \frac{11^2}{R}

R = 4.26 m

PART B)

now if the total mass is given as

m = 2821 kg

now the Net force will be given as

F = ma

F = 2821 \times 28.42 = 80172.8 N

Now by force equation we will have

F_n + mg = ma

F_n + 2821(9.8) = 80172.8

F_n = 52527 N

PART C)

If the radius of the loop is 14 m

speed is given by same v = 11 m/s

now the acceleration is given as

a = \frac{v^2}{R}

a = \frac{11^2}{14} = 8.6 m/s^2

PART D)

Now for normal force at the top is given by force equation

F_n + mg = ma

F_n + 2821(9.8) = 2821(8.6)

so here normal force is coming with negative sign so it will not be possible to complete the circular path in this case

So normal force will be ZERO
