Why are vectors important in physics?

1 answer:

7 0

They are quantities with magnitude and direction like velocity, we'd be doomed without them to be honest , just knowing how fast something is going isn't enough, you want to know where it is going

A proton moves along the x-axis with vx=1.0×107m/s. As it passes the origin, what are the strength and direction of the magnetic

Answer:

Magnetic field will be ZERO at the given position

Explanation:

As we know that the magnetic field due to moving charge is given as

$B = \frac{\mu_0 qv sin\theta}{4\pi r^2}$

so here we know that for the direction of magnetic field we will use

$\hat B = \hat v \times \hat r$

so we have

$\hat B = \hat i \times (\hat i + 0\hat j + 0\hat k)$

so magnetic field must be ZERO

So whenever charge is moving along the same direction where the position vector is given then magnetic field will be zero
