Alex787 [66]3 years ago

Given :

An electron moving in the positive x direction experiences a magnetic force in the positive z direction.

To Find :

The direction of the magnetic field.

Solution :

We know, force is given by :

\vec{F}=q(\vec{v}\times \vec{B)}

Here, q = -e.

\vec{F}=(-e)(\vec{v}\times \vec{B)}\\\\\hat{k}=(-e)(\hat{i}\times \vec{B})

Now, for above condition to satisfy :

\hat{i}\times \vec{B}=-\hat{k}

So, \vec{B}=-\hat{j}

Therefore, direction of magnetic field is negative y direction.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Explain your results: How can Earth’s gravity affect the water when the water isn’t actually touching the Earth? (2 pts) Do you
Levart [38]

Answer:

Because the Earth has so much gravity, it can hold water, land, and life in it's atmosphere.

(Not sure what beaker you are talking about, so sorry) But I don't think the moon's gravity would have an effect on a beaker of water because the Earth's gravity is much more than the moon's.

I think you would be able to feel a little bit of Earth's gravity  on the moon because the Earth's gravity pulled the moon into orbit, therefore, gravity on Earth my have some effect on the moon.

hope this helps!

A rocket initially at rest accelerates at a rate of 99. 0 meters/second2. Calculate the distance covered by the rocket if it att
creativ13 [48]

The rocket will cover 1 \times  10^3\rm \ m distance in 4. 5 s. Acceleration can be defined as the change in velocity.

<h3>What is acceleration?</h3>

Acceleration can be defined as the change in speed or the direction of the object.

From kinamatic equation:

D = v_{t} +\dfrac 12at^2

Where,

D - final velocity =  445 m/s

v_0 -  initial valocity = 0 m/s

a - acceleration = 99. 0 m/s²

t - time =  4. 50 s

Put the values in the formula,

D = 0\times  ( 4.5) + \dfrac12\times (99)(4.5)^2\\\\D = 1002 {\rm \ m}\\\\D = 1 \times  10^3\rm \ m

Therefore, the rocket will cover 1 \times  10^3\rm \ m distance in 4. 5 s.

An ambulance with a siren emitting a whine at 1790 Hz overtakes and passes a cyclist pedaling a bike at 2.36 m/s. After being pa
Deffense [45]

Answer:

The speed of the ambulance is 4.30 m/s

Explanation:

Given:

Frequency of the ambulance, f = 1790 Hz

Frequency at the cyclist, f' = 1780 Hz

Speed of the cyclist, v₀ = 2.36 m/s

let the velocity of the ambulance be 'vₓ'

Now,

the Doppler effect is given as:

f'=f\frac{v\pm v_o}{v\pm v_x}

where, v is the speed of sound

since the ambulance is moving towards the cyclist. thus, the sign will be positive

thus,

v_x=\frac{f}{f'}(v+v_o)-v

on substituting the values, we get

v_x=\frac{1790}{1780}(343+2.36)-343

or

vₓ = 4.30 m/s

Hence, <u>the speed of the ambulance is 4.30 m/s</u>

A plane electromagnetic wave travels northward. At one instant, its electric field has a magnitude of 9.6 V/m and points eastwar
lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

The values is  B  = 3.2 *10^{-8} \  T

The  direction is out of the plane

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The  magnitude of the electric field is  E  =  9.6 \  V/m

 

The  magnitude of the magnetic field is mathematically represented as

       B  = \frac{E}{c}

where c is the speed of light with value

      B  = \frac{ 9.6}{3.0 *10^{8}}

     B  = 3.2 *10^{-8} \  T

Given that the direction off the electromagnetic wave( c ) is  northward(y-plane ) and  the electric field(E) is eastward(x-plane ) then the magnetic field will be acting in the out of the page  (z-plane  )
