Answer:

The electron tends to go to the region of 4. higher electric potential.

Explanation:

When a charged particle is immersed in an electric field, it experiences a force given by

F=qE

where

q is the charge of the particle

E is the electric field

The direction of the force depends on the sign of the charge. In particular:

- The force and the electric field have the same direction if the charge is positive

- The force and the electric field have opposite directions if the charge is negative

Therefore, an electron (negative charge) moves in the direction opposite to the electric field lines.

However, electric field lines go from points at higher potential to points at lower potential: so, electrons move from regions at lower potential to regions of higher potential.

Therefore, the correct answer is

The electron tends to go to the region of 4. higher electric potential.

Mass of object is 50g moves in a circular path of radius 10cm find work done
topjm [15]

Answer:

Work done = 0.3142 Nm

Explanation:

Mass of Object is 50 g

Circular path of radius is 10 cm ⇒ 0.1 m

Work done = Force × Distance = ?

*Distance moved (circular path) ⇒ Circumference of the circular path

2πr = 2 × 3.142 × 0.1 ⇒ 0.6284 m

*Force that is enough to move a 50 g must be equal or more than its weight.

therefore convert 50 grams to newton = 0.5 N

Recall that; work done is force times distance

∴ 0.5 N × 0.6284 m

Work done = 0.3142 Nm

A Ray of light falling on rough surface follows the laws of reflection but no image of the object placed before it is C explain
stepladder [879]

Answer:

The light rays falling on a rough surface does follow the laws of reflection. The light rays are incident parallel on the rough surface but due to uneven surface the light rays are not reflected parallel rather they are reflected in different direction. Hence, no image is formed.
