Answer:

a) to the right

b) up

c) down

d) there will be no force on the proton

e) there will be no force on the proton

Explanation:

The complete question is

If the velocity of a proton is straight up(thumb pointing up) then RHR2 (right hand rule) shows that the force points to the left. What would the direction of the force be if the velocity were a)down, b)to the right, c)to the left, d)into the page, and e)out of the page?

The right hand rule for a positive charge states that...

Hold the thumb of the right hand at right angle to the rest of the fingers, and the rest of the fingers parallel to one another, and pointing away from the body. If the thumb shows the velocity of a positive charge in a magnetic field, and the fingers all point in the direction of the magnetic field, then the palm will push in the direction of the force on the positive charge (proton).

From this, we can deduce from the original statement about this proton that the direction of the field is into the screen of this computer. with that field direction held constant, we can work out that

a) if the thumb point down, the force will be to the right

b) if the thumb points to the right, the force will be upwards

c)  if the thumb points to the left, the force is downwards

d)  if the thumb points into the page, then there will be no force on the proton since the proton must travel perpendicularly to the magnetic field for a force to be induced on it

e) explanation is the same as foe option d.

Two trains are headed towards each other on the same track unbeknownst to the engineers. One departs San Francisco. Its average
aalyn [17]

Answer:

7,166 hrs =430  minutes

Explanation:

Since both train are on the same track, going one towards the other, the relative speed is the addition of both, then the time they need to meet, and consistently crash, is the time that (65mph + 55 mph)=120mph need to travel the total distance of 860 miles, of course in this case one part is traveled by the first train and the rest by the other. Then to find the time we use a three rule

1 h --->120mi

X ---->860mi, then X=(860 mi* 1h)/120 mi = 43/6 hrs= 7,16666 hrs, turning this into minutes need that we notice 1h=60min, then 43/6 hrs *60 min/hrs = 430 minutes.

Keith_Richards [23]

It is given that by using track and cart we can record the time and the distance travelled and also the speed of the cart can be recorded. With all this data we can solve questions on the laws of motion.  

Like using the first law of motion we can determine the force of gravity acting on the cart that has moved a certain distance and the velocity or the speed of card has already been registered and since time is known putting the values in formula would help us calculate the gravitational pull acting on cart.

Answer: Acted on by equal forces in opposite direction

Explanation:
