Acceleration is change in velocity over time:

a = change in v / t
a = (10-2) / 4
a = 8 /4 = 2 m/s^2

The electric field in a region of space increases from 0 to 2150 N/C in 5.00 s. What is the magnitude of the induced magnetic fi
Feliz [49]

To solve this problem we will use the Ampere-Maxwell law, which   describes the magnetic fields that result from a transmitter wire or loop in electromagnetic surveys. According to Ampere-Maxwell law:

\oint \vec{B}\vec{dl} = \mu_0 \epsilon_0 \frac{d\Phi_E}{dt}

Where,

B= Magnetic Field

l = length

\mu_0 = Vacuum permeability

\epsilon_0 = Vacuum permittivity

Since the change in length (dl) by which the magnetic field moves is equivalent to the perimeter of the circumference and that the electric flow is the rate of change of the electric field by the area, we have to

B(2\pi r) = \mu_0 \epsilon_0 \frac{d(EA)}{dt}

Recall that the speed of light is equivalent to

c^2 = \frac{1}{\mu_0 \epsilon_0}

Then replacing,

B(2\pi r) = \frac{1}{C^2} (\pi r^2) \frac{d(E)}{dt}

B = \frac{r}{2C^2} \frac{dE}{dt}

Our values are given as

dE = 2150N/C

dt = 5s

C = 3*10^8m/s

D = 0.440m \rightarrow r = 0.220m

Replacing we have,

B = \frac{r}{2C^2} \frac{dE}{dt}

B = \frac{0.220}{2(3*10^8)^2} \frac{2150}{5}

B =5.25*10^{-16}T

Therefore the magnetic field around this circular area is B =5.25*10^{-16}T

CHEGG 42 mT magnetic field points due west. If a proton of kinetic energy 9 x 10-12 J enters this field in an upward direction,
alexdok [17]

Answer:

The  magnitude of the Force is  F = 697 *10^{-15}N  and the direction is South  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

         The magnetic field point due west and since East point toward the positive x -axis(i)  then this magnetic field would be mathematically represented as

                \= B = 42(-i)mT = 42*10^{-3} (-i) T

Now from the question we are told that the kinetic energy is

             KE = 9*10^{-12}J

Now this kinetic energy can be mathematically represented as

                  KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Where m is the mass of proton which has a general value of

           m = 1.67*10^{-27}kg

Now making the subject of the formula

                v = \sqrt{\frac{KE}{0.5 * m} }

Substituting values we have

               v = \sqrt{\frac{9*10^{-12}}{0.5 * 1.67*10^{-27}} }

                 = 10.37*10^7m/s

Now from the question we are told that proton is moving upward which is in the positive z direction so the velocity of the proton would be in the positive

So the velocity would be

            \= v = 10.37*10^{7} \r k \ m/s

Now the magnetic Force can be mathematically represented as

          \= F = q \= v * \=  B

Where q is the charge on the proton which has a general value of  q =1.6*10^{-19}C

Now substituting the value

          \= F = 1.6*10^{-19 } * (10.37 *10^7) \r k * (42 *10^{-3})(-i)

              = 697*10^{-15} J

Now according to Fleming's left hand rule the direction of the magnetic force is south toward the negative Y - direction (-j)

So the force can be denoted as

                 \= F = 697*10^{-15}(-j) N

Which of the following BEST explains why stability is an important skill for athletes?
Irina-Kira [14]

Answer;

B. Without good stability, athletes are too clumsy to perform well.

Explanation;

Stability refers to the resistance to both linear and angular acceleration, or resistance to disruption of equilibrium.

Developing and enhancing core strength and stability helps athletes to maximize their power output and enhance game day performance. Additionally, Improving core strength and stability can also help athletes reduce their risk of injury.
