At a location near the equator, the earth’s magnetic field is horizontal and points north. An electron is moving vertically upwa

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

(b) EAST

Explanation:

you can assume that the magnetic field points rightward, that is, in the positive x direction (NORTH). Furthermore, you can assume that the direction of the motion of the electron is in the positive y direction. Hence, you have:

$\vec{B}=B_o\hat{i}\\\\\vec{v}=v_o\hat{j}$

You use the Lorentz formula to known which is the direction of the magnetic force over the electron:

$F=qv\ X\ B$

which implies the cross product between the unitary vecors j and i, that is

$\hat{i} \ X\ \hat{j} = -\hat{k}$ (WEST)

However, the minus sign of the charge of the electron changes the direction 180°. Hence, the direction is k. That is, to the EAST

How much power will it take to move a 10 kg mass at an acceleration of 2 m/s² a distance of 10 meters in 5 seconds?

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

100 Watts

Explanation:

<u>These equations are needed to work out the answer:</u>

power= work done/ time taken

work done= force* distance

force= mass* acceleration

force: 10 kg* 2m/s= 20

work done: 20* 10m=200

power: 200/2=100

A harmonic wave is traveling along a rope. It is observed that the oscillator that generates the wave completes 43.0 vibrations

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

0.218

Explanation:

Given that

Total vibrations completed by the wave is 43 vibrations

Time taken to complete the vibrations is 33 seconds

Length of the wave is 424 cm = 4.24 m

to solve this problem, we first find the frequency.

Frequency, F = 43 / 33 hz

Frequency, F = 1.3 hz

Also, we find the wave velocity. Which is gotten using the relation,

Wave velocity = 4.24 / 15

Wave velocity = 0.283 m/s

Now, to get our answer, we use the formula.

Frequency * Wavelength = Wave Velocity

Wavelength = Wave Velocity / Frequency

Wavelength = 0.283 / 1.3

Wavelength = 0.218

A 5.00 kg crate is suspended from the end of a short vertical rope of negligible mass. An upward force F(t) is applied to the en

Brut [27]

Answer:

75 N

Explanation:

In this problem, the position of the crate at time t is given by

$y(t)=2.80t+0.61t^3$

The velocity of the crate vs time is given by the derivative of the position, so it is:

$v(t)=y'(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(2.80t+0.61t^3)=2.80+1.83t^2$

Similarly, the acceleration of the crate vs time is given by the derivative of the velocity, so it is:

$a(t)=v'(t)=\frac{d}{dt}(2.80+1.83t^2)=3.66t$ [m/s^2]

According to Newton's second law of motion, the force acting on the crate is equal to the product between mass and acceleration, so:

$F(t)=ma(t)$

where

m = 5.00 kg is the mass of the crate

At t = 4.10 s, the acceleration of the crate is

$a(4.10)=3.66\cdot 4.10 =15.0 m/s^2$

And therefore, the force on the crate is:

$F=ma=(5.00)(15.0)=75 N$
