<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

B. toward the south

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • The right hand rule to determine the direction of magnetic force. This rule state that <em><u>if the thumb, the fore finger, and the middle finger of the right hand are held at right angles to one another, with the fore finger pointing in the direction of the magnetic field, and the middle finger pointing in the direction of the positive charge, then the thumb will point in the direction of the magnetic force.</u></em>
  • In this case, <u><em>the positive charge is moving from the floor towards the ceiling, the magnetic field from east to west direction, thus  suing the right hand rule, the direction of the magnetic force will be towards the south.</em></u>

How does having a sharp pointed beak limit what foods a bird can eat?
liraira [26]

Answer:

The shape of a bird's beak is a clue to its main source of food. The shape of a bird's beak is designed for eating particular types of food such as: seeds, fruit, insects, nectar, fish, or small mammals. Bird beaks have adapted over time to help birds find food within their habitat which allows them to survive. The beak, bill, and/or rostrum is an external anatomical structure found mostly in birds, but also in non-avian dinosaurs and some mammals. A beak is used for eating and for preening, manipulating objects, killing prey, fighting, probing for food, courtship and feeding young.

Calculate the average speed in metres per second from Glasgow to Ediburgh ( The table )
Angelina_Jolie [31]
Total distance is 28+12+34=74km=74000m.
Total time is 20+8+25 minutes=53 minutes=53×60=3180 secs.
Average speed is 74000/3180=23.27 m/s.

The charge on the square plates of a parallel-plate capacitor is Q. The potential across the plates is maintained with constant
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

D) Q/2

Explanation:

The relationship between charge Q, capacitance C and voltage drop V across a capacitor is

Q=CV (1)

In the first part of the problem, we have that the charge stored on the capacitor is Q, when the voltage supplied is V. The capacitance of the parallel-plate capacitor is given by

C=\frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d}

where \epsilon_0 is the vacuum permittivity, A is the area of the plates, d is the separation between the plates.

Later, the voltage of the battery is kept constant, V, while the separation between the plates of the capacitor is doubled: d'=2d. The capacitance becomes

C'=\frac{\epsilon_0 A}{d'}=\frac{\epsilon_0 A}{2d}=\frac{C}{2}

And therefore, the new charge stored on the capacitor will be

Q'=C'V=\frac{C}{2}V=\frac{Q}{2}
