The name of the scientist who incorrectly theorized that it was the positive charge that moved through a circuit is Benjamin Franklin. Franklin made his famous experiments with a kite in a charged cloud.
He was the scientist that made the electrical notation where the current is given by the direction of the positive charges flow.

A velocity selector in a mass spectrometer uses a 0.150 T magnetic field. (a) What electric field strength (in volts per meter)

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

The electric field strength is $6.6\times10^{5}\ V/m$

Explanation:

Given that,

Magnetic field = 0.150 T

Speed $v= 4.40\times10^{6}\ m/s$

We need to calculate the electric field strength

Using formula of velocity

$v=\dfrac{E}{B}$

$E=v\times B$

Where, v = speed

B = magnetic field

Put the value into the formula

$E=4.40\times10^{6}\times0.150$

$E=660000\ V/m$

$E=6.6\times10^{5}\ V/m$

Hence, The electric field strength is $6.6\times10^{5}\ V/m$

A truck is driving over a scale at a weight station. When the front wheels drive over the scale, the scale reads 5800 N. When th

aev [14]

Answer:

$x_2=1.60m$

Explanation:

From the Question We are told that

Initial Force $F_1=5800N$

Final Force $F_2=6500N$

Distance between the front and rear wheels \triangle x=3.20 m

Since

$\triangle x=3.20 m$

Therefore

$x_1+x_2=3.20$

$x_1=3.20-x_2$

Generally the equation for The center of mass is at x_2 is mathematically

given by

$x_2 =\frac{(F_1x_1+F_2x_2)}{(F_1+F_2)}$

$x_2=3.20F_1-\frac{x_2F_1+F_2x_2}{(F_1+F_2)}$

$2*F_1*x_2 =3.20F_1$

$x_2=1.60m$

Which electromagnet will produce the strongest magnetic force? (1 point)

Contact [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

Y will produce the strongest magnetic force because the current intensity is medium and it has 50 turns in the wire. the number of turns will increase the force because the magnetic field will be more concentrated.

Have a great day :)

An astronaut takes an object to the moon where there is less gravity. Explain how the mass and weight of the object on the moon

alexandr1967 [171]

The mass of the object will remain the same rather it's on the moon or on the Earth and even in other places. But the weight will change on the moon, so its weight will be different from the one it had on Earth

A high-jumper, having just cleared the bar, lands on an air mattress and comes to rest. Had she landed directly on the hard grou

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

e. the air mattress exerts the same impulse, but a smaller net avg force, on the high-jumper than hard-ground.

Explanation:

This is according to the Newton's second law and energy conservation that the force exerted by the hard-ground is more than the force exerted by the mattress.

The hard ground stops the moving mass by its sudden reaction in the opposite direction of impact force whereas the mattress takes a longer time to stop the motion of same mass in a longer time leading to lesser average reaction force.

Mathematical expression for the Newton's second law of motion is given as:
