A proton with a velocity in the positive x-direction enters a region where there is a uniform magnetic field B in the positive y

-direction. You want to balance the magnetic force with an electric force so that the proton will continue along a straight line. The electric field should be in the
neg y direction
neg x direction
postive x direction
postive z direction
negative z

Answer:

Negative z-direction

Explanation:

First of all, we need to understand the direction of the magnetic force on the proton. This can be determined by using the right hand rule. So we have:

- index finger: direction of the proton, positive x-direction

- middle finger: direction of magnetic field, positive y-direction

- thumb: direction of the force, positive z-direction

In order to balance this magnetic force, the electric force must act in the opposite direction (negative z direction). Since for a proton (positive charge) the force and the electric field have same direction, it means that the electric field must also be in the negative z direction.

Nearly all physics problems will use the unit m/s squared. Why are the seconds squared?
Artist 52 [7]
Seconds squared is the time unit of acceleration.  It represents the change in distance units per second per second. For example, 3 m/sec² means a distance covering 3 meters in the first second, then 9 meters in the 2nd second, and 37 meters in the third second. (3^1, 3^2, 3^3).

Acceleration is part of Newton's 2nd law: force = mass x acceleration. Units of work: joule = kg·m²/s², and power: watts = kg·m²/s³ all contain accelerations.

WILL MARK BRAINLIEST. Which gas became part of Earth's atmosphere as a result of the evolution of life-forms?
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

Earth's atmosphere was largely made up of nitrogen and carbon dioxide gases. After photosynthesizing organisms multiplied on Earth's surface and in the oceans, much of the carbon dioxide was replaced with oxygen.

Idk if this helps but plz mark brainliest if it does
