Answer:

The thumb of the right hand must point in the direction of the current.

Explanation:

The right hand rule is used to find the direction of magnetic field around a current-carrying wire. In this rule, it is consider to hold a current carrying wire in your right hand such that the thumb shows the direction of current. The curled finger gives the direction of magnetic field.

For example, if the current points in northward direction, then the direction of magnetic field is in anticlockwise direction.

Answer:

Thumb

Explanation:

The direction of the magnetic field can be determined by using the right-hand rule. According to this rule, hold a current carrying wire in your right hand such that the thumb of the right-hand point in the direction of electric current. The curled finger gives the direction of the magnetic field.

Hence, the thumb shows the electric current.

You throw a balloon that floats in the air with a velocity of 2 m / s south . If the wind speed is 5 m / s west , how far south
zvonat [6]

Answer:

The distance traveled by the balloon is 10.77 m

Explanation:

velocity of the ball, v_b = 2 m/s south

velocity of the air, v_a = 5 m/s west

To determine the distance the balloon will travel after 2 seconds, first determine the resultant velocity of the balloon.

                                       | 2m/s

                                       |

                                       |

                                      ↓

      5m/s  ←------------------

the two velocities forms a right angled triangle and the resultant will be the hypotenuses side of the triangle.

R² = 5² + 2²

R² = 29

R = √29

R = 5.385 m/s

The distance traveled by the balloon is calculated as;

d = R x t

where;

t is time of the motion = 2 seconds

d = 5.385 x 2

d = 10.77 m

Therefore, the distance traveled by the balloon is 10.77 m.

An 8 kg mass moving at 8 m/s collides with a 6 kg mass
steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

10 m/s

Explanation:

Momentum before collision = momentum after collision

m₁u₁ + m₂u₂ = m₁v₁ + m₂v₂

(8 kg)(8 m/s) + (6 kg)(6 m/s) = (8 kg)(5 m/s) + (6 kg) v

64 kg m/s + 36 kg m/s = 40 kg m/s + (6 kg) v

60 kg m/s = (6 kg) v

v = 10 m/s
