Answer:

Positively charged particle trajectories always follow electric field lines because the electric force on a positively charged particle is in the same direction as the electric field.

Explanation:

For any positive charge the electric field emerges radially outwards and it goes radially inwards for the negative charges.

From the theory of electric field lines we know that they never intersect each other, either they get merged when the sources are unlike or they repel when the sources are alike. In other words the electric field lines align in the same direction as that of the field.
So, when a positive charge is released into the an electric field they follow the direction of the field lines because they too have their field lines emerging radially outwards and hence these lines align in the direction of the field.

While driving north at 25 m/s during a rainstorm you notice that the rain makes an angle of 38° with the vertical. While driving

Answer: $21.33^{\circ}$

Explanation:

Given

velocity of driver $v_1$ =25 m/s w.r.t ground towards north

driver observes that rain is making an angle of $38^{\circ}$ with vertical

While returning $v_2$ =25 m/s w.r.t. ground towards south

suppose $u_1$ =velocity of rain drop relative car while car is going towards north

$u_2$ =velocity of rain drop relative car while car is going towards south

z=vector sum of $u_1 & v_1$

Now from graph

$\tan 38=\frac{v_1+v_2}{u_2}$

$u_2=\frac{25+25}{\tan 38}=64 m/s$

$z=\vec{u_2}+\vec{v_2}$

therefore magnitude of z is given by

$|z|=\sqrt{u_2^2+v_2^2}$

$|z|=\sqrt{64^2+25^2}$

$|z|=68.70 m/s$

$\tan A=\frac{v_2}{u_2}$

$\tan A=\frac{25}{64}=0.3906$

$A=21.33^{\circ}$

Thus rain drops make an angle of $21.33^{\circ}$ w.r.t to ground

The method of creating the illusion of depth on a 2-d surface through the appearance of converging parallel lines and one or mor

user100 [1]

This method is known as linear perspective.
When using linear perspective, artists use a set of drawn or imaginary lines which are made to converge at the horizon of the image. These lines change the viewer's perspective by providing a point through which the relative size, shape and position of objects is determined. This technique creates the illusion of depth.

A 1.0-kg block and a 2.0-kg block are pressed together on a horizontal frictionless surface with a compressed very light spring

egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

4. both blocks will both have the same amount of kinetic energy.

Explanation:

When the blocks are released free from the compression force, the spring exerts equal and opposite force on each block but the block with heavier (double) mass will attain slower ( half ) speed as compared to the lighter block according to the law of inertia. This works in synchronization to energy conservation.

Spring force is given as:

$F=k.\Delta x$
