Consider a particle with unit charge q, and mass m, in a constant magnetic field B directed along the positive z–axis. The parti

cle is subject to Lorentz force: F = q [v × B] , (1) where v is the velocity of the particle. Assuming that initially the particle was at the origin r(t = 0) = 0 with velocity v(t = 0) = (u, 0, w) determine the trajectory of the particle.

Answer:

it must be helical motion in which the charge particle will move uniformly along z axis and simultaneously it will move in circular path in xy plane.

Explanation:

Magnetic field is along z axis while velocity is in x-z plane

so we will have

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

so here we can say

F = q(u\hat i + w\hat k) \times (B \hat k)

so we will have

F = quB(-\hat j)

so here the net force on the charge is perpendicular to its x directional velocity along - Y direction

So due to this component of motion it will move along a circle while other component of the motion will remain uniform always

So here it is combination of two parts

1) Uniform circular motion

2) Uniform motion

So we can say that it must be helical motion in which the charge particle will move uniformly along z axis and simultaneously it will move in circular path in xy plane.

A solar cell generates a potential difference of 0.25 V when a 550 Ω resistor is connected across it, and a potential difference
Andre45 [30]

a) 400 \Omega

b) 0.43 V

c) 0.44 %

Explanation:

a)

For a battery with internal resistance, the relationship between emf of the battery and the terminal voltage (the voltage provided) is

V=E-Ir (1)

where

V is the terminal voltage

E is the emf of the battery

I is the current

r is the internal resistance

In this problem, we have two situations:

1) when R_1=550 \Omega, V_1=0.25 V

Using Ohm's Law, the current is:

I_1=\frac{V_1}{R_1}=\frac{0.25}{550}=4.5\cdot 10^{-4} A

2) when R_2=1000 \Omega, V_2=0.31 V

Using Ohm's Law, the current is:

I_2=\frac{V_2}{R_2}=\frac{0.31}{1000}=3.1\cdot 10^{-4} A

Now we can rewrite eq.(1) in two forms:

V_1 = E-I_1 r

V_2=E-I_2 r

And we can solve this system of equations to find r, the internal resistance. We do it by substracting eq.(2) from eq(1), we find:

V_1-V_2=r(I_2-I_1)\\r=\frac{V_1-V_2}{I_2-I_1}=\frac{0.25-0.31}{3.1\cdot 10^{-4}-4.5\cdot 10^{-4}}=400 \Omega

b)

To find the electromotive force (emf) of the solar cell, we simply use the equation used in part a)

V=E-Ir

where

V is the terminal voltage

E is the emf of the battery

I is the current

r is the internal resistance

Using the first set of data,

V=0.25 V is the voltage

I=4.5\cdot 10^{-4}A is the current

r=400\Omega is the internal resistance

Solving for E,

E=V+Ir=0.25+(4.5\cdot 10^{-4})(400)=0.43 V

c)

In this part, we are told that the area of the cell is

A=4.0 cm^2

While the intensity of incoming radiation (the energy received per unit area) is

Int.=5.5 mW/cm^2

This means that the power of the incoming radiation is:

P=Int.\cdot A=(5.5)(4.0)=22 mW = 0.022 W

This is the power in input to the resistor.

The power in output to the resistor can be found by using

P'=I^2R

where:

R=1000 \Omega is the resistance of the resistor

I=3.1\cdot 10^{-4} A is the current on the resistor (found in part A)

Susbtituting,

P'=(3.1\cdot 10^{-4})^2(1000)=9.61\cdot 10^{-5} W

Therefore, the efficiency of the cell in converting light energy to thermal energy is:

\epsilon = \frac{P'}{P}\cdot 100 = \frac{9.6\cdot 10^{-5}}{0.022}=0.0044\cdot 100 = 0.44\%

A 2.2 kgkg block slides along a frictionless surface at 1.2 m/sm/s . A second block, sliding at a faster 4.0 m/sm/s , collides w
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

0.6kg

Explanation:

the unknown here is the mass of the second block

applying the law of the conservation of momentum

m₁v₁ + m₂v₂ = (m₁ + m₂) v₃

where m₁=mass of first block=2.2kg

m₂=mass of colliding block= ?

v₁= velocity of first block=1.2m/s

v₂=velocity of colliding block=4.0m/s

v₃= final velocity of combined block=1.8m/s

applying the formula above

(2.2 × 1.2) + (m₂ × 4) = (2.2 + m₂) × 1.8

2.64 + 4m₂ = 3.96 + 1.8m₂

collecting like terms

4m₂ - 1.8m₂ = 3.96 - 2.64

2.2m₂=1.32

divide both sides by 2.2

m₂= 0.6kg

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST! QUICK PLEASE HELP!!!
LenKa [72]

Answer:Weight is the result of gravity . The gravitational field strength of Earth is 10 N/kg (ten newtons per kilogram). This means an object with a mass of 1 kg would be attracted towards the centre of Earth by a force of 10 N. We feel forces like this as weight.
