Answer:

Down.

Explanation:

In the given question, the charged particle is moving towards the east direction. Suppose east direction towards the positive x-axis.

And the magnetic field directed towards to the north direction. Suppose north direction towards the positive y-axis.

Therefore force of magnetic field can be calculate by the formula,

F=q(vi\times Bj)\\F=qvB(k)

Therefore force of the magnetic field is in positive z-axis means in an upward direction.

Now the force on the electric field must be in the opposite direction means it is in a downward direction.

Fill in the blanks for the following:
storchak [24]

Answer:

<em>a. 4.21 moles</em>

<em>b. 478.6 m/s</em>

<em>c. 1.5 times the root mean square velocity of the nitrogen gas outside the tank</em>

Explanation:

Volume of container = 100.0 L

Temperature = 293 K

pressure = 1 atm = 1.01325 bar

number of moles n = ?

using the gas equation PV = nRT

n = PV/RT

R = 0.08206 L-atm-mol^{-1}K^{-1}

Therefore,

n = (1.01325 x 100)/(0.08206 x 293)

n = 101.325/24.04 = <em>4.21 moles</em>

The equation for root mean square velocity is

Vrms = \sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M} }

R = 8.314 J/mol-K

where M is the molar mass of oxygen gas = 31.9 g/mol = 0.0319 kg/mol

Vrms = \sqrt{\frac{3*8.314*293}{0.0319} }= <em>478.6 m/s</em>

<em>For Nitrogen in thermal equilibrium with the oxygen, the root mean square velocity of the nitrogen will be proportional to the root mean square velocity of the oxygen by the relationship</em>

\frac{Voxy}{Vnit} = \sqrt{\frac{Mnit}{Moxy} }

where

Voxy = root mean square velocity of oxygen = 478.6 m/s

Vnit = root mean square velocity of nitrogen = ?

Moxy = Molar mass of oxygen = 31.9 g/mol

Mnit = Molar mass of nitrogen = 14.00 g/mol

\frac{478.6}{Vnit} = \sqrt{\frac{14.0}{31.9} }

\frac{478.6}{Vnit} = 0.66

Vnit = 0.66 x 478.6 = <em>315.876 m/s</em>

<em>the root mean square velocity of the oxygen gas is </em>

<em>478.6/315.876 = 1.5 times the root mean square velocity of the nitrogen gas outside the tank</em>

To stretch a certain nonlinear spring by an amount x requires a force F given by F = 40 x − 6 x 2 , where F is in Newtons and x
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

64 J

Explanation:

The potential energy change of the spring ∆U = -W where W = work done by force, F.

Now W = ∫F.dx

So, ∆U = - ∫F.dx = - ∫Fdxcos180 (since the spring force and extension are in opposite directions)

∆U = - ∫-Fdx

=  ∫F.dx

Since F = 40x - 6x² and x moves from x = 0 to x = 2 m, we integrate thus, ∆U =  ∫₀²F.dx

=  ∫₀²(40x - 6x²).dx

=  ∫₀²(40xdx - 6x²dx)

=  ∫₀²(40x²/2 - 6x³/3)

=  ∫₀²(20x² - 2x³)

= [20x² - 2x³]₀²

= [(20(2)² - 2(2)³) - (20(0)² - 2(0)³)

= [(20(4) - 2(8)) - (0 - 0))

= [80 - 16 - 0]

= 64 J

A train has a length of 81.1 m and starts from rest with a constant acceleration at time t = 0 s. At this instant, a car just re
arlik [135]

Answer: a) vcar= 7 m/s ; b) a train= 0.65 m/s^2

Explanation: By using the kinematic equation for the car and the train we can determine the above values of the car velocity and the acceletarion of the train, respectively.

We have for the car

distance = v car* t, considering the length of train (81.1 m) travel by the car during the first 11.6 s

the v car =  distance/time= 81.1 m/11.6s= 7 m/s

In order to calculate the acceleration we have to use the kinematic equation for the train from the rest

distance train = (a* t^2)/2

distance train : distance travel by the car at constant speed

so distance train= (vcar*36.35)m=421 m

the a traiin= (2* 421 m)/(36s)^2=0.65 m/s^2

A circular pizza into 3 equal parts, one piece of pizza is taken out. Estimate the degree measure of the single piece of pizza a
seropon [69]

Answer:

A circular pizza has a angle of 360 degrees. When you cut it into 3 equal pieces you divide 360 by 3,you get 120 degrees. And following the conversion of 120 degree into radian you get 2pie/3 radians.

Diamond and graphite are both composed entirely of carbon yet graphite is soft and diamond is one of the hardest substances know
pogonyaev

Explanation:

This difference is because of the difference in arrangement of carbon atoms both graphite and Diamond.

Carbon atoms in graphite are arranged in layered form in an infinite array of layers. These layers are held together by a weaker force of attraction called vander waal's force of attraction such that layer's can slip over one another. Whereas in diamond carbon atoms are arranged tetrahedrally. Each carbon atom is attached to four carbon atoms with a bond angle of 109.5°. It is strong rigid three dimensional structure that results in infinite array atoms. This accounts for hardness of the diamond.
