<h2>Answer:</h2>

0.17T

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

When a charged particle moves into a magnetic field perpendicularly, it experiences a magnetic force F_{M} which is perpendicular to the magnetic field and direction of the velocity. This motion is circular and hence there is a balance between the centripetal force F_{C} and the magnetic force. i.e

F_{C} = F_{M}     --------------(i)

<em>But;</em>

F_{C} = \frac{mv^2}{r}   [m = mass of the particle, r = radius of the path, v = velocity of the charge]

F_{M} = qvB [q = charge on the particle, B = magnetic field strength, v = velocity of the charge ]

<em>Substitute these into equation (i) as follows;</em>

\frac{mv^2}{r} = qvB

<em>Make B subject of the formula;</em>

B = \frac{mV}{qr}            ---------------(ii)

<em>Known constants</em>

m = 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷kg

q = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹C

<em>From the question;</em>

v = 1.4 x 10⁷m/s

r = 0.85m

Substitute these values into equation(ii) as follows;

B = \frac{1.67 * 10 ^{-27} * 1.4 * 10^{7}}{1.6 * 10^{-19} * 0.85}

B = 0.17T

Therefore, the magnetic field strength is 0.17T

The sun produces large amounts of energy. By what process does the sun produce energy?
AlladinOne [14]
The sun produces energy by converting gravitational potential energy into radiation via quantum processes in the nucleus of the atoms.

Since the mass of the sun and it's temperature are not quite enough to generate nuclear FUSION on their own, quantum tunneling is the primary process by which nuclear fusion occurs in our sun, SOL. FISSION also occurs as a result of this fusion.

Additionally, gravitational potential energy is also the reason that supernovae are so bright. Cool!

A tennis player hits a ball 2.0 m above the ground.
tangare [24]

Explanation:

initial height, yo = 2 m

initial velocity, u = 20 m/s

angle of projection,θ = 5 degree

distance of net = 7 m

height of net = 1 m

Let it covers a vertical distance y in time t .

Use Second equation of motion for vertical motion

As it hits the ground in time t, so put y = 0

Taking positive sign, t = 0.84 s

The ball travels a horizontal distance x in time t

X = 20 Cos5 x t

X =  16.76 m

As this distance is more than the distance of net, so it clears the net.

Let t' be the time taken to travel a horizontal distance equal to the distance of net

7 = 20 cos5 x t'

t' = 0.35 s

Let the vertical distance traveled by the ball in time t' is y'.

So,

y' = 2.008 m

So, it clears the net which is 1 m high.

It clears the net by a vertical distance of 2.008 - 1 = 1.008 m and horizontal distance 16.76 - 7 = 9.76 m

your welcome, and have a great day.
