A long straight wire carries a current of 50 A. An electron, traveling at1.0×107m/s, is 5.0 cm from the wire. What is the magnit

ude of the magnetic force on the electron if the electron velocity is directed (a) toward the wire, (b) parallel to the wire in the direction of the current, and (c) perpendicular to the two directions defined by (a) and (b)?

Answer:

Recall, The magnetic field on a electron in a wire, Bₓ = (µ₀ I)/(2πr)

Note: Magnetic force direction is at right angles to electron motion.

Magnetic force, F = q * v * Bₓ

Substituting Bₓ into F, we have

F = q * v * Bₓ = (q * v * µ₀* I)/(2π r) = (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ x 1.0 x 10⁷ x 4π x 10⁻⁷ x 50)/( 2π x 5 x 10⁻²) = 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁶ N

a) Hence, the magnitude of the magnetic force on the electron if the electron velocity is directed (a) toward the wire is 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁶ N  and opposite the current

b) Hence, the magnitude of the magnetic force on the electron if the electron velocity is directed (b) parallel to the wire in the direction of the current is 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁶ N  and away from the wire.

c) Hence, the magnitude of the magnetic forces on the electrons if the electron velocity is perpendicular to the two directions defined by (a) and (b) is 3.2 x 10⁻¹⁶ N  and (a) direction - opposite the current, (b) same direction as current.

Explain, using the kinetic theory of matter, why liquids and solids are more denser than gases
AlekseyPX
Solid and liquids are much more denser than gas because their molecules are close to each other and with that the molecules of them can't move that freely unlike the gas molecules. Also, because of being near to each other the molecules of solid and liquids became heavy making them dense.

A man has been guarding a house for one hour . Why is it not considered work in science
leva [86]

Answer: because there is no displacement or movement in the watchman's work. according to science when displacement or movement take place it is said to be work. hope this helps you.

If the phase of the vibrating sources was changed so that they were vibrating completely out of phase, what effect would this ha
Over [174]

Answer:

There would be complete destructive interference.

Explanation:

This is because since the waves are completely out of phase, the phase difference is half wavelength, that is the phase angle is 180°. The vibrating sources are 180° out of phase with each other.

Since this is the case, the crest of the one source meets the trough of the other, this causes the resultant vibrational wave to cancel out, thus producing a destructive interference pattern.

Since the vibrating sources are completely out of phase, every point they meet is completely out of phase, so the resultant interference pattern would produce a complete destructive interference pattern of no wave.
