Answer:

v = 1.3 10⁸  m / s

Explanation:

The magnetic force is given by

       F = q v x B

Where blacks indicate vectors

The magnetic field has a direction to the north, the fixed uranium atom on Earth has a direction to the east, so the field and velocity are perpendicular, the expression of the force remains

         F = q v B

If we use Newton's second law

       F = ma

The acceleration is centripetal

      F = m v² / r

The distance is the radius of the earth plus the distance from the surface

      r = Re + 50.103

      r = 6.37 10⁶ + 5 10³

      r = 6.3705 10⁶ m

      m v² / r = q v B

      v = q/m   B r

uranium mass

     m = 238 (1.66 10⁻²⁷) kg = 395 10⁻²⁷ kg

Let's calculate

      v = 1.6 10⁻¹⁹ 0.5 10⁻⁴ 6.3705 10⁶ /395 10⁻²⁷

      v = 1.29 10⁸  m / s

Which part of a river would have animals with very muscular bodies and adaptations that let survive in turbulent water? Source z
lidiya [134]
The part of a river that would have animals with muscular bodies and adaptations that let survive in turbulent water is in the transition zone, the mid-transition zone to be precise. Water at the source zone possesses a lot of potential energy and as it flows from the upper reaches the potential energy is turned into kinetic energy when the course of the river begins to gradually level out and this translates into increase in velocity. By the time river water reaches the middle of the transition zone, most of the potential energy would have been turned into kinetic energy and thus water velocity would be quite high here. Animals living here would develop muscles because of constantly fighting against the strong current to avoid being swept downstream.

The force required to stretch a Hooke’s-law spring varies from 0 N to 63.5 N as we stretch the spring by moving one end 5.31 cm
Alika [10]

Answer:

Force constant will be 1195.85 N/m

Work done will be 1.6859 J

Explanation:

We have given the force,  F = 63.5 N

Spring is stretched by 5.31 cm

So x = 0.0531 m

Force is given , F = 63.5 N

We know that force is given by F=kx

So 63.5=k\times 0.0531

k = 1195.85 N/m

Now we have to find the work done

We know that work done is given by

W=\frac{1}{2}kx^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 1195.85\times 0.0531^2=1.6859J
