Answer:

Resistance

Explanation:

In a circuit, voltage source (cell or battery), key (for closing and opening circuit), resistance and a conducting wire are main components. Ohm's law states that current flowing in the circuit is proportional to the potential difference across the two ends.

V = I R

Where R is the resistance. Current also depends on the resistance. Greater resistance means lesser current would flow.

A light bulb and toaster represent resistance. These devices are based on Joule's Heating. When current passes through a resistance, it heats up and energy is lost as heat in case of toaster and as heat and light in case of light bulbs.

A particle with charge 7.76×10^(−8)C is moving in a region where there is a uniform 0.700 T magnetic field in the +x-direction.

kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

The z-component of the force is $\= F_z = 0.00141 \ N$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The charge on the particle is $q = 7.76 *0^{-8} \ C$

The magnitude of the magnetic field is $B = 0.700\r i \ T$

The velocity of the particle toward the x-direction is $v_x = -1.68*10^{4}\r i \ m/s$

The velocity of the particle toward the y-direction is

$v_y = -2.61*10^{4}\ \r j \ m/s$

The velocity of the particle toward the z-direction is

$v_y = -5.85*10^{4}\ \r k \ m/s$

Generally the force on this particle is mathematically represented as

$\= F = q (\= v X \= B )$

So we have

$\= F = q ( v_x \r i + v_y \r j + v_z \r k ) \ \ X \ ( \= B i)$

$\= F = q (v_y B(-\r k) + v_z B\r j)$

substituting values

$\= F = (7.7 *10^{-8})([ (-2.61*10^{4}) (0.700)](-\r z) + [(5.58*10^{4}) (0.700)]\r y)$

$\= F= 0.00303\ \r j +0.00141\ \r k$

So the z-component of the force is $\= F_z = 0.00141 \ N$

Forces normal to a particle's displacement do no work.

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

The work done is defined as the product of force applied in the direction of displacement and the displacement.

W = F x d x Cosθ

where, F is the force applied, d be the displacement and θ be the angle between the displacement and force.

For the normal forces, the angle between the displacement and the force applied is 90 degree, and the value of Cos 90 is zero, so the work done is zero.
