Answer: Valence electrons
Valence electrons are those that are in the outermost or superficial layer of the atom, which means they have the highest energy compared to those of the inner layers.
Because of their position, it is easier for these electrons to interact with other atoms of their own element as well as different elements. This is done through the process of forming bonds when being attracted by other atoms.
Answer:
1. Fleming's left hand rule
2. It must be projected towards the east
Explanation:
Fleming's left-hand rule states that; When a current-carrying conductor is placed in an external magnetic field, the conductor experiences a force perpendicular to both the field and to the direction of the current flow. This rule was first put forward by John Ambrose Fleming in the later part of the nineteenth century.
Hence if the thumb, fore finger and middle finger of the lefthand are held mutually at right angles to each other; the thumb shows the direction of motion, the fore finger shows the direction of the field while the middle finger shows the direction of the current.
Hence, if the alpha particle is projected eastwards(at right angles) to the uniform magnetic field, it will be deflected southwards in the magnetic field.
Answer: q = -52.5 μC
Explanation:
The complete question is given thus;
A point charge Q moves on the x-axis in the positive direction with a speed of 280 m/s. A point P is on the y-axis at y=+70mm. The magnetic field produced at the point P, as the charge moves through the origin, is equal to -0.30uTk. What is the charge Q? (uo=4pi x 10^-7 T m/A).
SOLVING:
from the given parameters we can solve this problem.
Given that the
Speed = 280 m/s
y = 70mm
B = -30 * 10⁻⁶T
Using the equation for magnetic field we have;
Β = μqv*r / 4πr²
making q (charge) the subject of formula we have that;
q = B * 4 *πr² / μqv*r
substituting the values gives us
q = (-0.3*10⁻⁶Tk * 4π * 0.07²) / (4π*10⁻⁷ * 280 ) = - [14.7 * 10⁻¹⁰k / 2.8 * 10⁻⁵ k ]
q = -52.5 μC
cheers i hope this helped !!!
