Answer:
C) upward
Explanation:
The problem can be solved by using the right-hand rule.
First of all, we notice at the location of the negatively charged particle (above the wire), the magnetic field produced by the wire points out of the page (because the current is to the right, so by using the right hand, putting the thumb to the right (as the current) and wrapping the other fingers around it, we see that the direction of the field above the wire is out of the page).
Now we can apply the right hand rule to the charged particle:
- index finger: velocity of the particle, to the right
- middle finger: direction of the magnetic field, out of the page
- thumb: direction of the force, downward --> however, the charge is negative, so we must reverse the direction --> upward
Therefore, the direction of the magnetic force is upward.
Answer:
Explanation:
Use the following equation:
and solve for F:
and filling in:

F = 4.0 ×
N
Answer:
The correct answer is - 200000 J
Explanation:
We use the formula of kinetic energy:
The formula to calculate kinetic energy is,
Here,
Ec =1/2 x m x v^2
The mass of the roller coaster is, m = 1000 k
g
The speed of the roller coaster is, v = 20.0 m/s
Therefore,
Ec=1/2 x 1000kg x (20m/s)^2 = 200.000Joule
200,000J
Newton’s 2nd law
———
Newton's second law states that the acceleration of an object is directly related to the force on it, and inversely related to the mass of the object. You need more force to move or stop an object with a lot of mass (or inertia) than you need for an object with less mass. .
