The friends take a few minutes to discuss their ideas. Which of Amy's comments with respect to a charged particle moving in a ma

gnetic field is false? "The magnitude FB of the magnetic force exerted on the particle is proportional to the magnitude of the charge q and to the speed v of the particle." "The magnetic force acting on a charged particle moving in a magnetic field is perpendicular to the particle's velocity." "If the magnetic force is always perpendicular to the velocity, the path of the particle is a straight line." "The work done by the magnetic force on the particle is zero."

Answer:

The statement "if the magnetic force is always perpendicular to the velocity, the path of the particle is a straight line" is false.

Explanation:

The equation for the magnetic force on a charge q moving at velocity v on a magnetic field B is given by the (vectorial) Lorentz Force Law F=qv\times B

From it we can clearly see that the <em>magnitude of the magnetic force </em>exerted on the particle is <em>proportional to the magnitude of the charge q and to the speed v of the particle</em>, and that it is also <em>perpendicular to the particle's velocity</em>. This means that at each instant it moves perpendicularly to the force, so <em>the work done by the magnetic force on the particle is zero</em>.

The statement "if the magnetic force is always perpendicular to the velocity, the path of the particle is a straight line" is false not only for this but for any force, a force always perpendicular to a velocity will curve the trajectory.

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

The altitude of geostationary satellite is 3.58\times10^{7}\ m

Explanation:

Given that,

Radius of moon's orbit r=3.84\times10^{8}\ m

Time period T=2.36\times10^{6}\ sec

We need to calculate the orbital radius of geostationary satellite is

Using formula of time period

T=\sqrt{\dfrac{4\pi^2}{GM}a^3}

a=((\dfrac{GM}{4\pi^2})T^2)^{\dfrac{1}{3}}

Where, G = gravitational constant

M = Mass of earth

T = time period of geostationary satellite orbit

Put the value in to the formula

a=((\dfrac{6.67\times10^{-11}\times5.97\times10^{24}}{4\times\pi^2})\times(86160)^2)^{\dfrac{1}{3}}

a=4.217\times10^{7}\ m

We need to calculate the altitude of geostationary satellite

Using formula of altitude

h = a-R_{e}

Where, R = radius of earth

a = radius of geostationary satellite

Put the value into the formula

h =4.217\times10^{7}-6.38\times10^{6}

h =35790000\ m

h=3.58\times10^{7}\ m

Hence, The altitude of geostationary satellite is 3.58\times10^{7}\ m

Let F1=Force exerted by the brother (+F1)
F1= Force exerted by the sister (-F2)

Fnet=(+F1) + (-F2)
Fnet= (+F1) + (-F2)
Fnet=F1 - F2
Fnet= (+3N)+(-5N)
Fnet= -2N

A train pulls away from a station with a constant acceleration of 0.42 m/s2. A passenger arrives at a point next to the track 6.
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

2.69 m/s

Explanation:

Hi!

First lets find the position of the train as a function of time as seen by the passenger when he arrives to the train station. For this state, the train is at a position x0 given by:

x0 = (1/2)(0.42m/s^2)*(6.4s)^2 = 8.6016 m

So, the position as a function of time is:

xT(t)=(1/2)(0.42m/s^2)t^2 + x0 = (1/2)(0.42m/s^2)t^2 + 8.6016 m

Now, if the passanger is moving at a constant velocity of V, his position as a fucntion of time is given by:

xP(t)=V*t

In order for the passenger to catch the train

xP(t)=xT(t)

(1/2)(0.42m/s^2)t^2 + 8.6016 m = V*t

To solve this equation for t we make use of the quadratic formula, which has real solutions whenever its determinat is grater than zero:

0≤ b^2-4*a*c = V^2 - 4 * ((1/2)(0.42m/s^2)) * 8.6016 m =V^2 - 7.22534(m/s)^2

This equation give us the minimum velocity the passenger must have in order to catch the train:

V^2 - 7.22534(m/s)^2 = 0

V^2 = 7.22534(m/s)^2

V = 2.6879 m/s
