An electron, moving south, enters a magnetic field of certain strength. Because of this field the electron curves upward. What i
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer: The magnetic field points to the west.

Explanation:

If we take the plane as:

North = positive y-axis

East = positive x-axis.

We have that the electron is moving south, so the velocity of the electron can be written in vector form as:

V = (0, -v, 0)

Now, when the electron interacts with the magnetic field, the electron moves upwards.

We know that the interaction between an electron and a magnetic field is:

F = q*VxB

So we have that this force acts on the z-direction.

Now, to solve this we can use the righ hand rule.

First, we point wit our hand to the direction of the velocity (negative y-axis) now, we want that our thumb points up (the direction of the force) so the side where our palm faces is the direction of the field B.

But, remember that an electron has a negative charge, so the actual equation is:

F = -q*VxB

So the magnetic field actually points in the opposite direction of our palm, to the west.

Now, we can also solve it mathematically as:

F = (0, 0, f) = -q*(0, -v,0)x(a, b, c)

where B = (a, b, c) is the vector of the magnetic field.

     (0, 0, f) = -q*(-v*b -0, -0 + 0, 0 -(- a*v)) = -q*(-v*b, 0, a*v)

then we have that b must be equal to zero, and that:

f = -q*a*v

and f is positive, then we have:

a = -(f/q*v)

then the vector of the magnetic field is:

B = (-(f/q*v), 0, 0)

so it points in the negative x-axis, that is the West, as we found earlier.

A transverse wave is traveling through a canal. If the distance between two successive crests is 3.17 m and four crests of the w
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

a. 0.18Hz

b. 0.56m/s

Explanation:

From the question we can deduct the following parameters

The wavelength, λ is define as the distance between two successful crest or trough and from the question we conclude that wavelength is 3.17m.

Also the period of the wave T can be computed as

T=22.6/4

T=5.65secs.

a. To compute the frequency, recall that frequency, F=1/period.

Hence,

F=1/5.65

F=0.18Hz

b. Next we compute the wave speed.

Wave speed=frequency *wavelength

Wave speed =0.18*3.17

Wave speed =0.56m/s
