A particle accelerator fires a proton into a region with a magnetic field that points in the x-direction. (a) If the proton is m

oving in the y-direction, what is the direction of the magnetic force on the proton

Answer:

<em>The magnitude of the magnetic field will act in a direction towards me.</em>

<em></em>

Explanation:

When a charged particle enters a magnetic field, it is deflected. The direction of travel of the particle is deflected, but the kinetic energy of the particle is not affected. <em>The force experienced by a charged particle as it enters a magnetic field that acts perpendicular to the path of the velocity of the particle, will produce a force that is perpendicular to both the direction of travel of the particle and the direction of the magnetic field.</em> In this case, the proton moves in the y-direction, the magnetic field is in the x-direction, therefore the force experienced by the particle will be towards me.

Consider two children sitting on a merry-go-round, with one closer to the outer edge and one closer to the center. show answer N
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

They both have the same angular speed.

Explanation:

The mathematical formula for angular speed is:

w=\frac{2\pi}{T}

where w is angular speed, 2\pi is a constant, and T is the period (the time it takes the marry-go-round to complete a lap).

What we can see from the formula is that, since the 2\pi does not change its value, the angular speed depends only on the period T.

In this case for both the children closer to the outher edge and for the children closer to the center, the time to complete a lap is the same, because the time does not depend on where they are sitting in the marry go round. This means that the period for both is the same.

Thus, since the period for both is the same, the angular speed given by

w=\frac{2\pi}{T} will also be the same

A watering can is most likely measured in which metric unit
Iteru [2.4K]
A watering can is used to hold a water that we will use to water the plants. The water has both mass and volume. Two watering cans are most often different by the volume they contain. 

Many various units for volume are used but most often used unit is liter. In a metric system basic units are those such as meter, kilogram and liter while in imperial system units used are those such as foote, inch, pound and gallon.

Unit for volume in metric system is cubic meter. It is equal to a volume of a cube whose all sides measure 1m. This is equal to 1000L. For watering cans that contain several liters units used is decimeter cubed. 1dm^3 = 1L

A ball is dropped from a tower that is 206 m high, How long does it take to reach the ground?
Slav-nsk [51]

It will take 6.42 s for the ball that is dropped from a height of 206 m to reach the ground.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Height (H) = 206 m

<h3>Time (t) =? </h3>

NOTE: Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 10 m/s²

The time taken for the ball to get to the ground can be obtained as follow:

H = ½gt²

206 = ½ × 10 × t²

206 = 5 × t²

Divide both side by 5

t^{2}  = \frac{206}{5}\\\\ t^{2} = 41.2

Take the square root of both side

t = \sqrt{41.2}

<h3>t = 6.42 s</h3>

Therefore, it will take 6.42 s for the ball to get to the ground.
