Furkat [3]3 years ago

Answer:

Explanation:

Let the charge particle have charge equal to +q .

force due to electric field will be along the field that is along y - axis . To balance it force by magnetic force must be along   - y axis. ( negative of y axis )

force due to magnetic field = q ( v x B ) , v is velocity and B is magnetic field.

F = q ( v i x B k )  , ( velocity is along x direction and magnetic field is along z axis. )

= (Bqv) - j  

= - Bqv j

The force will be along - ve y - direction .

If we take charge as negative or - q

force due to electric field will be along - y axis .

magnetic force = F = -q ( v i x B k )

= +  Bqv j

magnetic force will be along  + y axis

So it is difficult to find out the nature of charge on the  particle from this experiment.

The gravitational force between two objects will be greatest in which of the following situations?
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Explanation:

Gravitational law states that, the force of attraction or repulsion between two masses is directly proportional to the product of the two masses and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart.

So,

Let the masses be M1 and M2,

F ∝ M1 × M2

Let the distance apart be R

F ∝ 1 / R²

Combining the two equation

F ∝ M1•M2 / R²

G is the constant of proportional and it is called gravitational constant

F = G•M1•M2 / R²

So, to increase the gravitational force, the masses to the object must be increased and the distance apart must be reduced.

So, option c is correct

C. Both objects have large masses and are close together.

Two planets, Dean and Sam, orbit the Sun. They each have with circular orbits, but orbit at different distances from the Sun. De
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

The correct answer is Dean has a period greater than San

Explanation:

Kepler's third law is an application of Newton's second law where the force is the universal force of attraction for circular orbits, where it is obtained.

                T² = (4π² / G M)  r³

When applying this equation to our case, the planet with a greater orbit must have a greater period.

Consequently Dean must have a period greater than San which has the smallest orbit

The correct answer is Dean has a period greater than San

A wire carries a steady current of 2.60 A. A straight section of the wire is 0.750 m long and lies along the x axis within a uni
ad-work [718]

Answer:

The magnetic force on the section of wire is -2.925\hat{j}\ N.

Explanation:

Given that,

Current I = 2.60\hat{i}\ A

Length = 0.750 m

Magnetic field B = 1.50\hat{k}\ T

We need to calculate the magnetic force on the section of wire

Using formula of magnetic force

\vec{F}=l\vec{I}\times\vec{B}

\vec{F}=0.750\times2.60\hat{i}\times1.50\hat{k}

Since, \hat{i}\times\hat{k}=-\hat{j}

\vec{F}=-2.925\hat{j}\ N

Hence, The magnetic force on the section of wire is -2.925\hat{j}\ N.

A mass of 4kg suspended by a light string 2m long and at rest is projected horizontally with a velocity of 1.5 m/s. find the ang
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

19.5°

Explanation:

The energy of the mass must be conserved. The energy is given by:

1) E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2+mgh

where m is the mass, v is the velocity and h is the hight of the mass.

Let the height at the lowest point of the be h=0, the energy of the mass will be:

2) E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2

The energy when the mass comes to a stop will be:

3) E=mgh

Setting equations 2 and 3 equal and solving for height h will give:

4) h=\frac{v^2}{2g}

The angle ∅ of the string with the vertical with the mass at the highest point will be given by:

5) cos\phi=\frac{l-h}{l}

where l is the lenght of the string.

Combining equations 4 and 5 and solving for ∅:

6) \phi={cos}^{-1}(\frac{l-h}{l})={cos}^{-1}(1-\frac{h}{l})={cos}^{-1}(1-\frac{v^2}{2gl})
