The magnetic force acting on the proton is
where
q is the proton charge
v is its speed
B is the intensity of the magnetic field
is the angle between the direction of v and B; since the proton is moving perpendicular to the magnetic field,
and
, so the force becomes
this force provides the centripetal force that keeps the proton in circular motion:
where the term on the left is the centripetal force, with
m being the mass of the proton
r the radius of its orbit
Re-arranging the previous equation, we can find the radius of the proton's orbit:
And now we can calculate the centripetal acceleration of the proton, which is given by
I believe that the answer is <span>C. The atmosphere scatters blue light more than yellow light.</span>
"Pluto was the first dwarf planet to be discovered" is the one statement among the following choices given in the question that is true <span>about dwarf planets. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the first option or option "a". Pluto was classified as a planet at first but in the year 1930 it was classified as a dwarf planet.</span>
Solution:
With reference to Fig. 1
Let 'x' be the distance from the wall
Then for DAC:
⇒
Now for the BAC:
⇒
Now, differentiating w.r.t x:
For maximum angle, = 0
Now,
0 = [/tex]\frac{d}{dx}[tan^{-1} \frac{d + h}{x} - tan^{-1} \frac{d}{x}][/tex]
0 =
After solving the above eqn, we get
x =
The observer should stand at a distance equal to x =
