Answer:

<em>e) west</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

According to Lorentz left hand rule, the left hand is used to represent the motion of an electron in a magnetic field. Hold out the left hand with the fingers held out parallel to the palm, and the thumb held at right angle to the other fingers. If the thumb represents the motion of the electron though the field, and the other fingers represent the direction of the field, then the palm will push in the direction of the force on the particle.

In this case, if we point the thumb to the south (towards your body), with the palm facing up, then the fingers will point west.

A ball rolls for 8 seconds and travels 24 meters. How fast was it traveling?
belka [17]

Answer:

The speed of the ball was, v = 3 m/s

Explanation:

Given data,

The time period of the ball, t = 8 s

The distance the ball rolled, d = 24 m

The velocity of an object is defined as the object's displacement to the time taken. The formula for the velocity is,

                              v = d / t      m/s

Substituting the given values in the above equation,

                               v = 24 / 8

                                  = 3 m/s

Hence, the speed of the ball was, v = 3 m/s

The Coulomb force between two charges q1 and q2 at separation r in air is F. If half of the separation is filled with medium of
vodomira [7]

Answer:

The new Coulomb force is q₁q₂/9πε₀r²

Explanation

The coulomb force between the two charges q₁ and q₂ at a distance r in air is given by F = q₁q₂/4πε₀r².

Now, let us assume the material of dielectric constant κ = 9 is placed between them on the side of the q₁ charge. The value of its effective charge is now q₃ = q₁/κ at a distance of d = r/2 from the q₂ charge.

Since we have air between q₂ and q₃, the coulomb force between them is

F' = q₂q₃/4πε₀d²

= q₂(q₁/κ)/4πε₀(r/2)²

=  4q₂q₁/κ4πε₀r²

= 4/κ(q₂q₁/4πε₀r²)

= 4/9 × (q₂q₁/4πε₀r²)

= q₁q₂/9πε₀r²

So, the new Coulomb force is q₁q₂/9πε₀r²

An object is located 50 cm from a converging lens having a focal length of 15 cm. Which of the following is true regarding the i
crimeas [40]

Answer:

It is real, inverted, and smaller than the object.

Explanation:

Let's start by using the lens equation to find the location of the image:

\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}

where we have:

q = ? is the distance of the image from the lens

f = 15 cm is the focal length (positive for a converging lens)

p = 50 cm is the distance of the object from the lens

Solving the equation for q, we find

\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{15 cm}-\frac{1}{50 cm}=0.047 cm^{-1}

q=\frac{1}{0.047 cm^{-1}}=+21.3 cm

The sign of q is positive, so the image is real.

Now let's also write the magnification equation:

h_i = - h_o \frac{q}{p}

where  

h_i, h_o are the size of the image and of the object

By substituting p = 50 cm and q = 21.3 cm, we find

h_i = - h_o \frac{21.3 cm}{50 cm}=-0.43 h_o

So we notice that:

|h_i| < |h_o| : this means that the image is smaller than the object

h_i < 0 : this means that the image is inverted

so, the correct option is:

It is real, inverted, and smaller than the object.

A bartender slides a beer mug at 1.6 m/s towards a customer at the end of a frictionless bar that is 1.1 m tall. The customer ma
Drupady [299]

Answer:

(a): the mug hits the floor 0.752m away from the end of the bar.

(b): the speed of the mug at impact are:

V= 4.87 m/s

direction= 70.82º below the horizontal.

Explanation:

Vx= 1.6 m/s

Vy=?

h= 1.1 m

g= 9.8 m/s²

t is the fall time

t=\sqrt{\frac{2*h}{g} }

t=0.47 sec

Vy= g*t

Vy= 4.6 m/s

V=\sqrt{Vx^{2} +Vy^{2}

V= 4.87 m/s

α= tan⁻¹(Vy/Vx)

α= -70.82º

The sun is the ___________ of all the energy that moves though food
Marta_Voda [28]


The sun is the <em><u>source</u></em> of all the energy that moves through food. It helps the plants to grow which in turn become food that we and other animals eat.

Hope it helps :)
