An electron is moving directly toward you in a horizontal path when it suddenly enters a uniform magnetic field that is either v

ertical or horizontal.
If the electron begins to curve upward in its motion just after it enters the field, you can conclude that the direction of the magnetic field is

Answer:

To your left

Explanation:

The direction of the force exerted on charged particle due to a magnetic field is given by the right-hand-rule, where:

- The index finger indicates the direction of motion of the electron

- the middle finger gives the direction of the magnetic field

- the thumb gives the direction of the force if the particle is positively charged - otherwise, the direction is reversed

in this case, we have an electron (so, a negatively charged particle):

- The direction of motion (index finger) is horizontal, toward you

- The electron begins to curve upward as it enters the field, so this means that the force exerted on the electrons is upward --> the thumb must point downward (because the electron is negatively charged)

- The index finger gives us the direction of the magnetic field: therefore, to your left.

What appliances use electromagnets
Svetlanka [38]
Electromagnets are used in home appliances quite regularly and are used even in simple home appliances. Common home appliances that use electromagnets are toasters, printers, and microwave ovens. Electromagnets are a certain type of magnet that does not function unless an electrical current flows through it. These appliances create the magnetic field by flowing electricity through certain parts of the appliance.

A coin is dropped. What is its displacement after 0.30 s.
Morgarella [4.7K]
Assuming this coin is on earth and that it wasn’t dropped forcefully:
Use the formula d = 1/2at^2. Rewriting using a=g and solving for height h gets us h = 1/2(9.8)t^2.
In this case that would get that the change in height h is 0.5(9.8)(0.3^2) = 0.441 m.
