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.

Ivan

Answer:

the magnetic field experienced by the electron is 0.0511 T

Explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Wavelength λ = 21 cm = 0.21 m

we know that Bohr magneton μ $_B$ is 9.27 × 10⁻²⁴ J/T

Plank's constant h is 6.626 × 10⁻³⁴ J.s

speed of light c = 3 × 10⁸ m/s

protein spin causes magnetic field in hydrogen atom.

Initial potential energy = -μ $_B$ B × cos0°

= -μ $_B$ B × 1

= -μ $_B$ B

Final potential energy = -μ $_B$ B × cos180°

= -μ $_B$ B × -1

= μ $_B$ B

so change in energy will be;

ΔE = μ $_B$ B - ( -μ $_B$ B )

ΔE = 2μ $_B$ B

now, difference in energy levels will be;

ΔE = hc/λ

2μ $_B$ B = hc/λ

2μ $_B$ Bλ = hc

B = hc / 2μ $_B$ λ

so we substitute

B = [(6.626 × 10⁻³⁴) × (3 × 10⁸)] / [2(9.27 × 10⁻²⁴) × 0.21 ]

B = [ 1.9878 × 10⁻²⁵ ] / [ 3.8934 × 10⁻²⁴ ]

B = 510556326.09

B = 0.0511 T

Therefore, the magnetic field experienced by the electron is 0.0511 T

The driver of a car slams on the brakes when he sees a tree blocking the road. The car slows uniformly with acceleration of −5.2

sergejj [24]

Answer:

The car strikes the tree with a final speed of 4.165 m/s

The acceleration need to be of -5.19 m/seg2 to avoid collision by 0.5m

Explanation:

First we need to calculate the initial speed $V_{0}$

$x=V_{0} *t+\frac{1}{2} *a*(t^{2} )\\62.5m=V_{0} *4.15s+\frac{1}{2} *-5.25\frac{m}{s^{2} } *(4.15^{2} )\\V_{0}=25.953\frac{m}{s}$

Once we have the initial speed, we can isolate the final speed from following equation:

$V_{f} =V_{0} +a*t$ $V_{f}= 4.165 \frac{m}{s}$

Then we can calculate the aceleration where the car stops 0.5 m before striking the tree.

To do that, we replace 62 m in the first formula, as follows:

$x=V_{0} *t+\frac{1}{2} *a*(t^{2} )\\62m=25.953\frac{m}{s}*4.15s+\frac{1}{2} *-a\frac{m}{s^{2} } *(4.15^{2} )\\a=-5.19\frac{m}{s^{2} }$

Starting from a pillar, you run 200 m east (the + x-direction) at an average speed of 5.0 m/s and then run 280 m west at an aver

zalisa [80]

Answer:

Total time taken=110 seconds

Total distance traveled=480m

Explanation:

First of all, we find the total time taken:

For that, we use the formula : Distance/Speed= Time

Time for part 1 : 200/5=40 seconds

Time for part 2 : 280/4=70seconds

Total time taken=110 seconds

Total distance traveled=480m

Average Speed= 480/110=4.36 m/s

Total displacement=200-280=-80m (Since this is displacement, we need to find the distance between the initial and final point. Also, I've taken east direction as positive and west as negative)

Average Velocity=-80/110=-0.72 m/s

OR 0.72m/s towards west.
