Answer:

The direction of the resulting force on this current is due east.

Explanation:

Given;

direction of the magnetic field to be due north

Applying right hand rule which states that: to determine the direction of the magnetic force on a positive moving charge point the thumb of the right hand in the direction of velocity v, the fingers in the direction of magnetic field B, and a perpendicular to the palm points in the direction of magnetic force.

Since the magnetic force must be perpendicular to the magnetic field, and direction of the magnetic field is due north, then the magnetic force must be due East.

Therefore, the direction of the resulting force on this current is due east.

A metal wire of resistance R is cut into two pieces of equal length. The two pieces are connected together side by side. Part A
wlad13 [49]

Answer:

R/2

Explanation:

Resistance of full lenght wire = R

Since length is divided into half but even then the resistance of each individual half is same i-e R

If connecetd into parallel mode then we know resultant resistance say 'r' is

1/r=1/R+1/R

or

1/r = 2/R

r= R/2

The current world-record motorcycle jump is 77.0 m, set by Jason Renie. Assume that he left the take-off ramp at 11.0° to the ho
Dafna1 [17]

Answer:

44.9 m/s

Explanation:

Initial velocity = v

Angle at which the projectile is shot at = θ = 11°

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

Range of projectile

R=\frac {v^{2}\sin 2\theta}{g}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\frac{Rg}{sin 2\theta}}\\\Rightarrow v=\sqrt{\frac{77\times 9.81}{sin (2\times 11)}}=44.9\\\Rightarrow v=44.9\ m/s

The take off speed of Jason Renie's motorcycle was 44.9 m/s

When spray is applied to a car, the paint has a negative charge and the surface of the car has a positive charge. Some processes
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

Based on the properties electrically charged particles, we have that unlike charges attract and like charges repel each other. In order for proper application of an electrostatically negatively charged paint to be properly applied on the metal body surface of a vehicle, require that for attraction, the surface of the vehicle should be grounded and positively charged so as to effectively attract the negatively charged paint particles as it exits the nozzle, to form a strong attachment with the positively charged surface of the vehicle

Which of the following is the correct SI unit to use in measuring the mass of a boulder
never [62]
Definitely not A or B. It really depends on the size of the boulder... It should be kilograms, unless it's a extremely huge boulder.

A person hears the echo of his own voice from a distant hill after 2 seconds. How far away is the person from the hill, if the s
olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer: 330 m

Explanation:

The speed of sound V is defined as the distance traveled by the sound wave d in a especific time t:  

V=\frac{d}{t}  

Where:  

V=330 m/s is the speed of sound  

t=\frac{2 s}{2}=1 s is half the time the sound wave travels since the person speaks, the sound wave hits the hill and then returns to the person again  as an echo

d is the distance between the person and the hill

So, we have to find d:

d=Vt

d=(330 m/s)(1 s)

Finally:

d=330 m
