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.

What does the slope of the curve on a distance vs time graph represent?
Lilit [14]

Slope of a curve Y plotted against X is mathematically given as

slope = \frac{dy}{dx}

now here we can see that if similarly graph is plotted against distance and time then slope is given as

slope = \frac{dx}{dt}

here we can say that above is ratio of small distance and very small interval of time.

so here we can say that this ratio of distance and time for very small interval of time is known as instantaneous speed of the object which is falling freely under gravity.

So here slope of the graph will represent the speed at a given instant.

velikii [3]

Answer:

\lambda=4L=1.33m

v=343m/s

Explanation:

We have to take into account the expressions

f=\frac{2n+1}{4}\frac{v_s}{L}\\L=(2n+1)\frac{\lambda}{4}

if we assume that 256Hz is the fundamental frequency we have

f=\frac{1}{4}\frac{v_s}{L}\\\\L=\frac{1}{4}\frac{v_s}{f}=\frac{1}{4}\frac{343\frac{m}{s}}{256Hz}=0.33m

and for wavelength

\lambda=4L=1.33m

hope this helps!!
