Answer:

2. west

Explanation:

Given an electron is moving vertically upward from ground.

Now Fleming right hand rule state that: make L shape with thumb and index finger then point middle finger perpendicular to index and thumb.Then index finger points in the direction of moving charge , middle finger points in the direction of the magnetic field and thumb points in the direction of the magnetic force.

According to Fleming right hand rule the direction of the magnetic that acts on the electron is west.

Falling objects drop with an average acceleration of 9.8 m/s2. An arrow is shot with a velocity of 11.76 m/s straight down from
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

3.8 secs

Explanation:

Parameters given:

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s^2

Initial velocity, u = 11.76 m/s

Final velocity, v = 49 m/s

Using one of Newton's equations of linear motion, we have that:

v = u + gt

where t = time of flight of arrow

The sign is positive because the arrow is moving downward, in the same direction as gravitational force.

Therefore:

49 = 11.76 + 9.8*t\\\\\\\49 - 11.76 = 9.8t\\\\=> 9.8t = 37.24\\\\\\t = \frac{37.24}{9.8} \\\\\\t = 3.8 secs

The arrow was in flight for 3.8 secs
