Answer:

1.51\cdot 10^6 m/s north

Explanation:

When a charged particle moves in a magnetic field, the particle experiences a force given by the formula:

F=qvB sin \theta

where

q is the magnitude of the charge

v is its velocity

B is the magnetic field

\theta is the angle between the directions of v and B

In this problem,

q=1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C (charge of the electron)

B=8.3\cdot 10^{-2} T (strength of magnetic field)

F=2.0\cdot 10^{-14} N (force)

\theta=90^{\circ}

Therefore, the velocity is

v=\frac{F}{qB sin \theta}=\frac{2.0\cdot 10^{-14}}{(1.6\cdot 10^{-19})(8.3\cdot 10^{-2})(sin 90^{\circ})}=1.51\cdot 10^6 m/s

The direction of the force is perpendicular to both the direction of the velocity and the magnetic field, and it can be found using the right-hand rule:

. Thumb: direction of the force (downward) --> however the charge is negative, so this direction must be reversed: upward

- Middle finger: direction of the field (west)

- Index finger: direction of velocity --> north

So, the electron is travelling north.

Schach [20]

Answer:

Explanation:

Appears to be the vertexes of a triangle.

AB = √(-6 - (-2))² + (3 - 4)²) = √17

AC = √(-6 - (-8))² + (3 - 3)²) = 2

BC = √(-2 - (-8))² + (4 - 3)²) = √37

Why does increasing the number trials increase confidence in the results of the experiment?
IceJOKER [234]
If you increase the number of trials in an experiment it will make the test more valid and legitimate.As you take the same test/experiment once or twice you could see if your results are similar to each other.

A pitcher throws a 0.14-kg baseball toward the batter so that it crosses home plate horizontally and has a speed of 42 m/s just
kykrilka [37]

Answer

given,

mass of base ball = 0.14 kg

speed before it made the contact with the ball (V i) = 42 m/s

speed after batter hit the ball(V f) = - 48 m/s

a)                                            

impulse = change in momentum

             = m\times (V_f-V_i)      

             =0.14\times (-48-42)

             = -12.6 Kg m/s

Magnitude of impulse = 12.6 Kg m/s

b)                                                        

Force = \dfrac{impulse}{time}

          =  \dfrac{12.6}{0.005}

Force = 2520 N
