Honey bees can acquire a small net charge on the order of 1 pC as they fly through the air and interact with plants. Estimate th

e magnetic force on a honey bee due to Earth's magnetic field as the bee flies near the ground from east to west. Average speed of a bee is 15 miles/hour.
HINT: Model the honey bee as a moving, charged point particle. The direction the bee flies is significant.

FEEDBACK: Model the charged honey bee as a point particle.

Answer:

3.35\cdot 10^{-16}N

Explanation:

The force exerted on a charged particle due to a magnetic field is given by:

F=qvB sin \theta

where

q is the charge of the particle

v is the velocity of the particle

B is the magnetic field strength

\theta is the angle between the directions of B and v

In this problem we have:

q=1 pC=1\cdot 10^{-12} C is the charge of one honey bee

v=15 mi/h = 6.7 m/s is the velocity of the bee

B=5.0\cdot 10^{-5} T is the average strength of the Earth's magnetic field

\theta=90^{\circ}, because the bee flies east to west while the Earth's magnetic field is south to north

Substituting into the equation, we find:

F=(1\cdot 10^{-12}C)(6.7 m/s)(5.0\cdot 10^{-5} T)(sin 90^{\circ})=3.35\cdot 10^{-16}N

In an insulated vessel, a quantity of hot water at temperature T1 is mixed with a different quantity of cold water at temperatur
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:Water Only

Explanation:

Given

vessel is insulated therefore no heat can be added or removed i.e. heat exchange is zero

If hot water at T_1 is mixed with cold water at T_2 then at equilibrium vessel contains only water and final temperature of water will be between T_1 and T_2

Heat released by hot water is equal to heat gain by cold water .

What do you mean by population size explain​
torisob [31]
Population size is the actual number of individuals in a population. Population density is a measurement of population size per unit area, i.e., population size divided by total land area. Abundance refers to the relative representation of a species in a particular ecosystem.

At a circus, a human cannonball is shot from a cannon at 15m/s at an angle of 40° above horizontal. She
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

a

The height is   H  = 6.74 \  m

b

The horizontal distance is  D  = 23.74 \  m

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The speed is  v  =  15 \  m/s

  The angle is  \theta  =  40^o

   The height of the cannon from the ground is  h  =  2 m

  The distance of the net from the ground is k  =  1 m

 

Generally the maximum height she reaches is mathematically represented as  

     H  =  \frac{v^2 sin^2 \theta }{2 *  g }  +  h

=>    H  =  \frac{(15)^2 [sin (40)]^2 }{2 * 9.8}  +  2

=>    H  = 6.74 \  m

Generally from kinematic equation  

    s = ut + \frac{1}{2} at^2

Here s is the displacement which is mathematically represented as

         s  =  [-(h-k)]  

    =>  s =  -(2-1)

    =>  s  = -1 m

There reason why s =  -1 m is because upward motion canceled the downward motion remaining only the distance of the net from the ground which was covered during the first half but not covered during the second half

     a =  -g = -9.8

    u  =  v sin (\theta)

So

    -1 = (vsin 40 )t + \frac{1}{2} * (-9.8) t^2

=>  -4.9t^2 + 9.6418t + 1 = 0

using  quadratic formula to solve the equation we have

    t  =  2.07 \  s

Generally distance covered along the horizontal is  

   D  =  v cos (40) *  2.07

=>   D  =  15 cos (40) *  2.07

=>   D  = 23.74 \  m
