Light pollution is influence of the light on earth (for example, street lighting) which interrupt observations. For example, if you are in a street during the night and street lights are turned on you won't see stars, but if lighting is turned off or if you go out of town you will see stars above.

A particle with mass 1.81×10−3 kg and a charge of 1.22×10−8 C has, at a given instant, a velocity v⃗ =(3.00×104m/s)j^. What are

slava [35]

Answer:

The magnitude and direction of the acceleration of the particle is $a= 0.3296\ \hat{k}\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass $m = 1.81\times10^{-3}\ kg$

Velocity $v = (3.00\times10^{4}\ m/s)j$

Charge $q = 1.22\times10^{-8}\ C$

Magnetic field $B= (1.63\hat{i}+0.980\hat{j})\ T$

We need to calculate the acceleration of the particle

Formula of the acceleration is defined as

$F = ma=q(v\times B)$

$a =\dfrac{q(v\times B)}{m}$

We need to calculate the value of $v\times B$

$v\times B=(3.00\times10^{4}\ m/s)j\times(1.63\hat{i}+0.980\hat{j})$

$v\times B=4.89\times10^{4}$

Now, put the all values into the acceleration 's formula

$a =\dfrac{1.22\times10^{-8}\times(-4.89\times10^{4}\hat{k})}{1.81\times10^{-3}}$

$a= -0.3296\ \hat{k}\ m/s^2$

Negative sign shows the opposite direction.

Hence, The magnitude and direction of the acceleration of the particle is $a= 0.3296\ \hat{k}\ m/s^2$

Three identical resistors have an equivalent resistance 15.6 ohm when they are connected in series. What is the resistance for e

attashe74 [19]

Answer:

$R=5.2\ \Omega$

Explanation:

In series combination, the equivalent resistance is given by :

$R_{eq}=R_1+R_2+R_3+...$

Let the identical resistors be R. We have, $R_{eq}=15.6\ \Omega$

So,

$R+R+R=15.6\\\\3R=15.6\\\\R=\dfrac{15.6}{3}\\\\R=5.2\ \Omega$

So, the resistance of each resistor is $5.2\ \Omega$ .
