Answer:

C) upward

Explanation:

The problem can be solved by using the right-hand rule.

First of all, we notice at the location of the negatively charged particle (above the wire), the magnetic field produced by the wire points out of the page (because the current is to the right, so by using the right hand, putting the thumb to the right (as the current) and wrapping the other fingers around it, we see that the direction of the field above the wire is out of the page).

Now we can apply the right hand rule to the charged particle:

- index finger: velocity of the particle, to the right

- middle finger: direction of the magnetic field, out of the page

- thumb: direction of the force, downward --> however, the charge is negative, so we must reverse the direction --> upward

Therefore, the direction of  the magnetic force is upward.

A 2kg box is pushed along a flat frictionless surface with an applied force of 53.91newton j+19.62 j were j is horizontal and j
tamaranim1 [39]

Since the box doesn't move vertically at all, no work is done by the vertical component of the force.

If 53.91 Newtons is the horizontal component of the force (very unclear in the question), then the work done is

<u>Work = (force) x (distance)</u>

Work = (53.91 N) x (10 m)

<em>Work = 539.1 Joules</em>

<u>Power = (work done) / (time to do the work)</u>

Power = (539.1 joules) / (90 sec)

Power = (539.1/90) (joule/sec)

<em>Power = 5.99 watts</em>

=====================================

Note:  If the mass of the box is only 2 kg, and you push it along the surface with a constant force of 53⁺ Newtons, and the surface really is frictionless, then that box is gonna cover a WHOOOOOLE LOT more than 10 meters in 90 seconds.  I get 109,168 meters !

Small, slowly moving spherical particles experience a drag force given by Stokes' law: Fd = 6πηrv where r is the radius of the p
Dominik [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

At the time of a body achieving terminal velocity, the drag force becomes equal to the weight of the body less the buoyant force by the surrounding medium which can be represented by the following equation

\frac{4\pi\times r^3(d-\rho)}{3} =6\pi\times n\times r\times v

Where r is radius of the body , d is density of the material of the body σ is density of the medium and n is coefficient of viscosity of the medium and v is terminal velocity.

Simplifying

v = \frac{2\times r^2(d-\rho)}{9\times n}

Assuming the value of density of air as 1.225 kg/m³ and putting other given values in the formula we get

v = [tex]\frac{2\times (1.2\times10^{-5})^2(2182-1.225)}{9\times 1.8\times10^{-5}}[/tex]

v = 387 x 10⁻⁵ m/s

Terminal velocity = 387 x 10⁻⁵ m/s

Time taken to fall a distance of 100 m

= \frac{100}{387\times10^{-5}}

= 2.6 x 10⁴ s.

A ball is thrown upward. As it passes 5.0 m height it is traveling at 4.0 m/s up. What was its initial upward velocity? (a) 7.0
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

c) 10.7m/s

Explanation:

From the exercise we know that at 5m the ball  is traveling at 4m/s

To calculate its initial velocity we need to solve the following equation:

v_{y}^{2}=v_{oy}^{2}+2g(y-y_{o})

Since the initial height is 0

Solving for v_{o}

v_{oy}=\sqrt{v_{y}^{2}-2gy}=\sqrt{(4m/s)^2-2(-9.8m/s^2)(5m)}=10.7m/s
