Answer:

Explanation:

The forces acting on a conductor carrying current placed in a magnetic field is analysed using the Fleming's left hand rule.

The rule states that "If the fire finger, the middle finger and the thumb are held mutually perpendicular to one another in a magnetic field, the fore finger acts in the direction of the magnetic field, the middle finger acts on the direction of the current while the thumb acts in the direction of the force.

Based on the rule, it can be inferred this current carrying wire placed in the magnetic field acts perpendicular to the magnetic field and force acting on the wire.

Answer:

The force that a particle of charge q and velocity v experiences when entering an electromagnetic field is:

F = q*(E + vxB)

Where E is the electric field and B is the magnetic field, here we only care for the magnetic field.

From this, we can see that the magnetic force will be perpendicular to the velocity and the magnetic field, and knowing that in a cable the electrons flow along the wire, we have that the force must be perpendicular to the wire and also to the magnetic field in where the wire is.

<h3>What is Potential and Kinetic energy?</h3>

Potential energy is the energy that is stored in any item or system as a result of its location or component arrangement. The environment outside of the object or system, such as air or height, has no impact on it. In contrast, kinetic energy refers to the energy of moving particles inside a system or an item.

mass of rod, mab = 2.4kg

mass of rod, mbc = 4kg

conservation of energy

T_{1}  + V_{1} = T_{2}  + V_{2}

h_{ab}  = h_{bc}  = 0.18m

potential energy at position 1,

V1 = m_{ab} gh_{ab}  + m_{bc} gh_{bc}

V1 = 2.5 * 9.81 * 0.18 + 4 * 9.81 * 0.18

V1 = 11.30112

kinetic energy T1 at position 1 is zero

potential energy at position 2 is zero

K.E at position 2,

T_{2} = \frac{1}{2} l_{ab} w^{2}_{ab} +  \frac{1}{2} m_{bc} v^{2}_{G} +  \frac{1}{2} lw^{2}_{bc}

l_{ab} =\frac{m_{ab} l^{2}_{ab}  }{3}

= 1/3 *4 * (0.36)²

=0.10368kg m²

l =\frac{m_{bc} l^{2}_{bc}  }{12}

= 1/12 *4 * (0.6)²

=0.12kg m²

on putting the values in above equation we get,

T₂ = 1.0667vb²

0 + 11.30112 = 1.0667vb² + 0

vb = 3.2549 m/s

Water is completely filling black metallic vessel having cubic form and thin walls. The mass of water is 1 kg and initial temper
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Check the attached image

Explanation:

To solve the problem for time you will have to use the formula for time, t = d/s which means time equals distance divided by speed.

Kindly check the attached image below for the step by step explanation to the question.

Which equation was used by Albert Einstein to explain the photoelectric effect? [E = energy, h = Planck’s constant, and v = freq
Afina-wow [57]

Answer:

E = hv

Explanation:

  • The photoelectric effect is a phenomenon when the electromagnetic waves of a particular wavelength strike on the metal plate like zinc, it ejects the free electrons.
  • The ejected electrons have the kinetic energy and this energy is responsible for the electric energy.
  • The kinetic energy of the emitted electrons is linked with the frequency of the incident rays.
  • If the rays hitting the metal plate is below the minimum required threshold value, the photoelectrons are not ejected.
  • The photoelectric equation is given by

                            E = hν - ∅

Where, ∅ is the minimum energy required to remove an electron.

A real object is 10.0 cm to the left of a thin, diverging lens having a focal length of magnitude 16.0 cm. What is the location
amm1812

Answer:

A)6.15 cm to the left of the lens

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the lens equation:

\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{f}-\frac{1}{p}

where

q is the distance of the image from the lens

f is the focal length

p is the distance of the object from the lens

In this problem, we have

f=-16.0 cm (the focal length is negative for a diverging lens)

p=10.0 cm is the distance of the object from the lens

Solvign the equation for q, we find

\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{-16.0 cm}-\frac{1}{10.0 cm}=-0.163 cm^{-1}

q=\frac{1}{-0.163 cm^{-1}}=-6.15 cm

And the sign (negative) means the image is on the left of the lens, because it is a virtual image, so the correct answer is

A)6.15 cm to the left of the lens
