Answer:

t = 300 seconds

Explanation:

It is given that,

Speed of the current in the river, v_1=1\ m/s

Distance covered by Britney, d = 300 m

Speed of Britney, v_2=2\ m/s

It is mentioned that Britney swims against the current. Her downstream speed is given by :

v=v_2-v_1

v=2-1

v = 1 m/s

Let t is the time taken by her to complete her trip. t is given by :

t=\dfrac{d}{v}

t=\dfrac{300\ m}{1\ m/s}

t = 300 seconds

So, the time taken by her the complete her trip is 300 seconds. Hence, this is the required solution.

A proton and an electron are moving in the +x direction in a magnetic field in the +z
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Force on a moving charge is given by the following relation

F = q ( v x B )

for proton

q = e  ,   v = vi  , B = Bk

F = e ( vi x Bk )

= Bev - j

= - Bevj

The direction of force is along negative of y axis or -y - axis.

for electron

q = - e  ,   v = vi  , B = Bk

F = - e ( vi x Bk )

= - Bev - j

=  Bevj

The direction of force is along positive  of y axis or + y - axis.

Define liquid pressure​
Stella [2.4K]

The pressure of a liquid on the surface of its container or on the surface of any body in the liquid is equal to the weight of a column of the liquid whose height equals the depth of the liquid at that certain point.

Suppose a wheel with a tire mounted on it is rotating at the constant rate of 2.23 2.23 times a second. A tack is stuck in the t
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

       Angular velocity (\omega) = 2.23 rps

     Distance from the center (R) = 0.379 m

First, we will convert revolutions per second into radian per second as follows.

             = 2.23 revolutions per second

             = 2.23 \times 2 \times 3.14 rad/s

             = 14.01 rad/s

Now, tangential speed will be calculated as follows.

  Tangential speed, v = R \times \omega

                               = 0.379 x 14.01

                               = 5.31 m/s

Thus, we can conclude that the tack's tangential speed is 5.31 m/s.
