<span> (a) does an electric field exert a force on a stationary charged object? 
Yes. The force exerted by an electric field of intensity E on an object with charge q is
</span>F=qE
<span>As we can see, it doesn't depend on the speed of the object, so this force acts also when the object is stationary.

</span><span>(b) does a magnetic field do so?
No. In fact, the magnetic force exerted by a magnetic field of intensity B on an object with  charge q and speed v is
</span>F=qvB \sin \theta
where \theta is the angle between the direction of v and B.
As we can see, the value of the force F depends on the value of the speed v: if the object is stationary, then v=0, and so the force is zero as well.

<span>(c) does an electric field exert a force on a moving charged object? 
Yes, The intensity of the electric force is still
</span>F=qE
<span>as stated in point (a), and since it does not depend on the speed of the charge, the electric force is still present.

</span><span>(d) does a magnetic field do so?
</span>Yes. As we said in point b, the magnetic force is
F=qvB \sin \theta
And now the object is moving with a certain speed v, so the magnetic force F this time is different from zero.

<span>(e) does an electric field exert a force on a straight current-carrying wire?
Yes. A current in a wire consists of many charges traveling through the wire, and since the electric field always exerts a force on a charge, then the electric field exerts a force on the charges traveling through the wire.

</span><span>(f) does a magnetic field do so? 
Yes. The current in the wire consists of charges that are moving with a certain speed v, and we said that a magnetic field always exerts a force on a moving charge, so the magnetic field is exerting a magnetic force on the charges that are traveling through the wire.

</span><span>(g) does an electric field exert a force on a beam of moving electrons?
Yes. Electrons have an electric charge, and we said that the force exerted by an electric field is
</span>F=qE
<span>So, an electric field always exerts a force on an electric charge, therefore on an electron beam as well.

</span><span>(h) does a magnetic field do so?
Yes, because the electrons in the beam are moving with a certain speed v, so the magnetic force
</span>F=qvB \sin \theta
<span>is different from zero because v is different from zero.</span>

A moving particle encounters an external electric field that decreases its kinetic energy from 9520 eV to 7060 eV as the particl
Sati [7]

Given Information:

KEa = 9520 eV

KEb = 7060 eV

Electric potential = Va = -55 V

Electric potential = Vb = +27 V

Required Information:

Charge of the particle = q = ?

Answer:

Charge of the particle = +4.8x10⁻¹⁸ C

Explanation:

From the law of conservation of energy, we have

ΔKE = -qΔV

KEb - KEa = -q(Vb - Va)

-q = KEb - KEa/Vb - Va

-q = 7060 - 9520/27 - (-55)

-q = 7060 - 9520/27 + 55

-q = -2460/82

minus sign cancels out

q = 2460/82

Convert eV into Joules by multiplying it with 1.60x10⁻¹⁹

q = 2460(1.60x10⁻¹⁹)/82

q = +4.8x10⁻¹⁸ C

Determine the direction of the force that will act on the charge in each of the following situations. A negative charge moving t
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

a) DOWN direction,  b)  directed INTO THE SCREEN, c)    F = 0

Explanation:

The direction of the force is

for electric force

           F = q E

where we assume a positive test charge, for which the force has the direction of the electric field.

For a magnetic field

in this case the direction of the force is given by the right hand rule.

For a positive test charge, the thumb points in the direction of velocity, the other fingers extended in the direction of the magnetic field, and the palm gives the direction of force for a positive charge.

           F = q v x B

Let us apply these considerations to our case.

a) negative charge moving to the left

in a magnetic field points away from the screen

In this case the thumb goes to the left, the fingers extended outwards and the palm points upwards, but since the charge is negative the force has a DOWN direction.

b) negative charge moves to the left

in electric field it points off the screen.

The outside is in the direction of the electric field and since the charge is negative, the force is directed INTO THE SCREEN

c) positive charge moves down

in magnetic field points up

in this case the velocity and the field have the same direction so the vector product of them is zero

       F = q v  B sin 0

       F = 0

TEA [102]

Answer:

(a) P_{power}=2688.53Watt

(b) P_{power}=3.605hp

Explanation:

For part (a)

As we know that

P_{power}=\frac{W_{work}}{t_{time}}\\As\\ W=1/2(mv_{f}^{2}-mv_{o}^{2} )So\\P_{power}=\frac{1/2(mv_{f}^{2}-mv_{o}^{2} )}{t}\\ P_{power}=\frac{1/2(56.0kg*(14.2m/s)^2-56.0kg*(0m/s)^2)}{2.1s} \\P_{power}=2688.53Watt

For part (b)

The power in unit of horsepower is:

P_{power}=(2688.53Watt)(\frac{1hp}{745.7Watt} )\\P_{power}=3.605hp
