Answer:

1. Fleming's left hand rule

2. It must be projected towards the east

Explanation:

Fleming's left-hand rule states that; When a current-carrying conductor is placed in an external magnetic field, the conductor experiences a force perpendicular to both the field and to the direction of the current flow. This rule was first put forward by John Ambrose Fleming in the later part of the nineteenth century.

Hence if the thumb, fore finger and middle finger of the lefthand are held mutually at right angles to each other; the thumb shows the direction of motion, the fore finger shows the direction of the field while the middle finger shows the direction of the current.

Hence, if the alpha particle is projected eastwards(at right angles) to the uniform magnetic field, it will be deflected southwards in the magnetic field.

Answer:

D &B

Explanation:

Using Fleming right hand rule that States that if the fore-finger, middle finger and the thumb of left hand are stretched mutually perpendicular to each other, such that fore-finger points in the direction of magnetic field, the middle finger points in the direction of the motion of positive charge, then the thumb points to the direction of the force

An industrial laser is used to burn a hole through a piece of metal. The average intensity of the light is W/m². What is the rms
inn [45]

I think your question should be:

An industrial laser is used to burn a hole through a piece of metal. The average intensity of the light is

S = 1.23*10^9 W/m^2

What is the rms value of (a) the electric field and

(b) the magnetic field in the electromagnetic wave emitted by the laser

Answer:

a) 6.81*10^5 N/c

b) 2.27*10^3 T

Explanation:

To find the RMS value of the electric field, let's use the formula:

E_r_m_s = sqrt*(S / CE_o)

Where

C = 3.00 * 10^-^8 m/s;

E_o = 8.85*10^-^1^2 C^2/N.m^2;

S = 1.23*10^9 W/m^2

Therefore

E_r_m_s = sqrt*{(1.239*10^9W/m^2) / [(3.00*10^8m/s)*(8.85*10^-^1^2C^2/N.m^2)]}

E_r_m_s= 6.81 *10^5N/c

b) to find the magnetic field in the electromagnetic wave emitted by the laser we use:

B_r_m_s = E_r_m_s / C;

= 6.81*10^5 N/c / 3*10^8m/s;

B_r_m_s = 2.27*10^3 T
