A meter stick is free to rotate about an axis through one of its end. Find the force F needed to balance this meter stick if the

mass 60 is grams and the force F is applied at the opposite end of the stick and it makes an angle of 60° with the stick.

Answer:

Explanation:

Component of force perpendicular to stick

= F Sin 60°

=√3 / 2 F.

Taking torque about the other end

= √3 / 2 F x 1 Nm

Weight of stick = 60 gm

= 60 x 10⁻³ kg

= 60 x 10⁻³ x 9.8 N

= .588 N

This weight will act from the middle point of stick so torque about the

other end

= .588 x 1 Nm

Balancing these two torques we have

.588 = √3 /2 F

F=\frac{2\times0.588}{\sqrt{3} }

F = 0.679 N

The electron is a type of low-mass, very negatively charged with a particle. As such, it can easily be deflected by passing close to other electrons or the positive nucleus of an atom. m = mass of an electron in kg = 9.10938356 × 10-31 kilograms. e = magnitude of the charge of an electron in coulombs = 1.602 x 10-19 coulombs. Hope this helps!

A wire, of length L = 4.1 mm, on a circuit board carries a current of I = 1.96 μA in the j direction. A nearby circuit element g
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

The magnitude of the magnetic field B is 5.921 T.

Explanation:

Given that,

Length = 4.1 mm

B_{x}=4.9\ G

B_{y}=2.3\ G

B_{z}=2.4\ G

Current I = 1.96\ mu A

We need to calculate the magnetic field

Using formula of magnetic field

B=\sqrt{B_{x}^2+B_{y}^2+B_{z}^2}

Put the value into the formula

B=\sqrt{(4.9)^2+(2.3)^2+(2.4)^2}

B=5.921\ T

Hence, The magnitude of the magnetic field B is 5.921 T.
