Answer:
B = 7.6 T direction of + x
Explanation:
For the proton beam to continue in the same direction the electric and magnetic forces must be equal
= 0
= F_{e}
Fm = q E
The electric force is in the direction of the electric field because it is the charge of the positive proton, the electric force goes in the direction of –y, therefore, the magnetic force cancels this force must go in the direction of + y
The magnetic force is
F_{m} = q v x B = q v B sin θ
θ = 90
B = q E / q v
B = E / v
B = 800/105
B = 7.6 T
To find the direction of the magnetic field we use the right hand rule, the thumb goes in the direction of the proton velocity, the fingers extended in the direction of the magnetic field and the palm is the direction of force, for a positive charge.
Thumb goes in the direction of the + z axis
Palm in the direction of +y
Fingers point in the direction of + x
Answer:
The net displacement of the car is 3 km West
Explanation:
Please see the attached drawing to understand the car's trajectory: First in the East direction for 4 km (indicated by the green arrow that starts at the origin (zero), and stops at position 4 on the right (East).
Then from that position, it moves back towards the West going over its initial path, it goes through the origin and continues for 3 more km completing a moving to the West a total of 7 km. This is indicated in the drawing with an orange trace that end in position 3 to the left (West) of zero.
So, its NET displacement considered from the point of departure (origin at zero) to the final point where the trip ended, is 3 km to the west.
