Alecsey [184]3 years ago

The rate of change of velocity with respect to time is acceleration. When we have some period of time, mathematically we write it: a=Δv/Δt, where Δv is a change in velocity and Δt is a time interval. When we talk about an instant of time, we have a limit: a=lim Δv/Δt, where Δt→0 and we write that as a=dv/dt where dv is an infinitesimal or infinitely small change in velocity and dt is an infinitesimally or infinitely small change in the time interval. So the correct answer is: the rate the velocity is changing at a given instant is acceleration.

The magnetic field over a certain range is given by B~ = Bx ˆı + By ˆ, where Bx = 2 T and By = 4 T. An electron moves into the
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The force exerted in a magnetic field is given as

F = q (v × B)

Where

F is the force entered

q is the charge

v is the velocity

B is the magnetic field

Given that,

The magnetic field is

B = 2•i + 4•j. T

The velocity of the electron is

v = 2•i + 6•j + 8•k. m/s

Also, the charge of an electron is

q = -1.602 × 10^-19 C.

Then note that,

V×B is the cross product of the speed and the magnetic field

Then,

F = q (V×B)

F = -1.602 × 10^-19( 2•i + 4•j +8•k × 2•i + 4•j)

Note

i×i=j×j×k×k=0

i×j=k. j×i=-k

j×k=i. k×j=-i

k×i=j. i×k=-j

F = -1.602 × 10^-19[(2•i + 4•j +8•k) × (2•i + 4•j)]

F = -1.602 × 10^-19 [2×2•(i×i) + 2×4•(i×j) + 4×2•(j×i) + 4×4•(j×j) + 8×2•(k×i) + 8×4•(k×j)]

F = -1.602 × 10^-19[4•0 + 8•k + 8•-k + 16•0 + 16•j + 32•-i]

F = -1.602 × 10^-19(0 + 8•k - 8•k + 0 + 16•j - 32•i)

F = -1.602 × 10^-19(16•j - 32•i)

F = -1.602 × 10^-19 × ( -32•i + 16•j)

F = 5.126 × 10^-18 •i - 2.563 × 10^-18 •j

Then, the x component of the force is

Fx = 5.126 × 10^-18 N

Also, the y component of the force is

Fy = -2.563 × 10^-18 N
