A negative charge is moving across a room from south to north. A magnetic field runs from east to west. In what direction is the

magnetic force on the moving negative charge?

Answer:

Downwards

Explanation:

Using Fleming's right hand rule, where the middle finger represents the negative charge moving in the south to north direction, the fore finger represents the magnetic field which points in the east to west direction.

If we are to follow this orientation and place the thumb, middle finger and fore-finger at right angles to each other, the thumb represents the direction of the magnetic force on the charge.

In this case, the magnetic force points downwards after setting the other orientations of the magnetic field and the negative charge's direction.

ivann1987 [24]

     The reason why Susan's drive is not working is that she has connected the drive to a USB 2.0 port, which does not have enough power for her drive.

<h3>What is the USB?</h3>

USB is a short acronym for the original word called a Universal Serial Bus. USB is a connector interface for connecting a computer to peripherals and other devices.

USB comes in different specs such as the:

  • USB 2.0
  • USB 3.0

Some of the characteristics differences between USB 2.0 and 3.0 are:

A USB 2.0 requires 480 Mbps for data transfer speed while USB 3.0 requires 4800 Mbps.

A USB 2.0 has the ability to use a maximum power of 500 mA, while USB 3.0 can make use of up to 900 mA.

From the given information, It is stated that the drive requires a minimum of 400 Mbps and at least 900 mA;

Therefore, it implies that the drive is supposed to work with a power of at least 900 mA for it to work.

But since it is not working, we can conclude that the drive is connected to a USB 2.0 port (500 mA) which does not have enough power for the drive.

Which changes in energy form are illustrated in the diagram.
Grace [21]
It would be B since it starts with the solar energy which is converted to electricity with the solar panels, which then creates mechanical energy for the fans blades to move and sound for the radio.

Hope that helps :)

A man is standing on a weighing machine on a ship which is bobbing up and down with simple harmonic motion of period T=15.0s.Ass
STALIN [3.7K]

Well, first of all, one who is sufficiently educated to deal with solving
this exercise is also sufficiently well informed to know that a weighing
machine, or "scale", should not be calibrated in units of "kg" ... a unit
of mass, not force.  We know that the man's mass doesn't change,
and the spectre of a readout in kg that is oscillating is totally bogus.

If the mass of the man standing on the weighing machine is 60kg, then
on level, dry land on Earth, or on the deck of a ship in calm seas on Earth,
the weighing machine will display his weight as  588 newtons  or as 
132.3 pounds.  That's also the reading as the deck of the ship executes
simple harmonic motion, at the points where the vertical acceleration is zero.

If the deck of the ship is bobbing vertically in simple harmonic motion with
amplitude of M and period of 15 sec, then its vertical position is 

                                     y(t) = y₀ + M sin(2π t/15) .

The vertical speed of the deck is     y'(t) = M (2π/15) cos(2π t/15)

and its vertical acceleration is          y''(t) = - (2πM/15) (2π/15) sin(2π t/15)

                                                                = - (4 π² M / 15²)  sin(2π t/15)

                                                                = - 0.1755 M sin(2π t/15) .

There's the important number ... the  0.1755 M.
That's the peak acceleration.
From here, the problem is a piece-o-cake.

The net vertical force on the intrepid sailor ... the guy standing on the
bathroom scale out on the deck of the ship that's "bobbing" on the
high seas ... is (the force of gravity) + (the force causing him to 'bob'
harmonically with peak acceleration of  0.1755 x amplitude).

At the instant of peak acceleration, the weighing machine thinks that
the load upon it is a mass of  65kg, when in reality it's only  60kg.
The weight of 60kg = 588 newtons.
The weight of 65kg = 637 newtons.
The scale has to push on him with an extra (637 - 588) = 49 newtons
in order to accelerate him faster than gravity.

Now I'm going to wave my hands in the air a bit:

Apparent weight = (apparent mass) x (real acceleration of gravity)

(Apparent mass) = (65/60) = 1.08333 x real mass.

Apparent 'gravity' = 1.08333 x real acceleration of gravity.

The increase ... the 0.08333 ... is the 'extra' acceleration that's due to
the bobbing of the deck.

                        0.08333 G  =  0.1755 M

The 'M' is what we need to find.

Divide each side by  0.1755 :          M = (0.08333 / 0.1755) G

'G' = 9.0 m/s²
                                       M = (0.08333 / 0.1755) (9.8) =  4.65 meters .

That result fills me with an overwhelming sense of no-confidence.
But I'm in my office, supposedly working, so I must leave it to others
to analyze my work and point out its many flaws.
In any case, my conscience is clear ... I do feel that I've put in a good
5-points-worth of work on this problem, even if the answer is wrong .
