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.

Over [174]
The protons and electrons are held in place on the x axis.
The proton is at x = -d and the electron is at x = +d. They are released at the same time and the only force that affects movement is the electrostatic force that is applied on both subatomic particles. According to Newton's third law, the force Fpe exerted on protons by the electron is opposite in magnitude and direction to the force Fep exerted on the electron by the proton. That is, Fpe = - Fep. According to Newton's second law, this equation can be written as
                               Mp * ap = -Me * ae
where Mp and Me are the masses, and ap and ae are the accelerations of the proton and the electron, respectively. Since the mass of the electron is much smaller than the mass of the proton, in order for the equation above to hold, the acceleration of the electron at that moment must be considerably larger than the acceleration of the proton at that moment. Since electrons have much greater acceleration than protons, they achieve a faster rate than protons and therefore first reach the origin.

A 2000 kg roller coaster is at the top of a loop with a radius of 24 m. If its speed is 18 m/s at this point, what force does it
levacccp [35]

Answer:

46620\ \text{N}

Explanation:

m = Mass of roller coaster = 2000 kg

r = Radius of loop = 24 m

v = Velocity of roller coaster = 18 m/s

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81\ \text{m/s}^2

Normal force at the point will be

N-mg=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}\\\Rightarrow N=\dfrac{mv^2}{r}+mg\\\Rightarrow N=\dfrac{2000\times 18^2}{24}+2000\times 9.81\\\Rightarrow N=46620\ \text{N}

The force exerted on the track is 46620\ \text{N}.

A rowboat has a momentum of 241.5 kg*m/s. if the rowboat has a mass of 115kg, what its it's speed?
Lera25 [3.4K]
Momentum = mass*velocity(or speed)

241.5 kg*m/s = 115 kg * v
v = 241.5 kg*m/s / 115 kg = 2.10 m/s
