The fall of a body on the earth's surface cannot be a complete free fall why ?​
leonid [27]

Explanation:

because the boy has larger surface area due to which he offers the larger air resistance which decreases the acceleration so, he will fall towards the earth's surface approximately with constant velocity.

A wire is carrying current vertically downward. What is the direction of the force due to Earth's magnetic field on the wire?
andrey2020 [161]

Answer: The correct option is A ( horizontally towards the east)

Explanation:

Magnetic field is a region around a magnet or a current- carrying conductor, where a magnetic force is experienced. The magnetic effect of electric current was first discovered in the early 1820 by Oersted. Using a wire that had current flowing through it and a pivoted magnetic needle, he discovered that the direction of deflection depended on the direction of the current and whether the wire was above or below the needle.

From the way the needle turns when current when current carrying wire is held parallel to it, he therefore concluded that:

--> a current has magnetic field all round it,

--> the magnetic field is in a direction perpendicular to the current.

The above discovery was now modified in Fleming's left hand rule which states that when conductor carrying current is placed in a magnetic field, the conductor will experience a force perpendicular to both the field and the flow of current.

Therefore from the question, a vertical wire carrying current in DOWNWARD direction is placed in a HORIZONTAL magnetic field directed to the NORTH. The direction of the force on the wire is to the EAST.

A small car with mass of 0.800 kg travels at a constant speed
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

The equation of equilibrium at the top of the vertical circle is:

\Sigma F = - N - m\cdot g = - m \cdot \frac{v^{2}}{R}

The speed experimented by the car is:

\frac{N}{m}+g=\frac{v^{2}}{R}

v = \sqrt{R\cdot (\frac{N}{m}+g) }

v = \sqrt{(5\,m)\cdot (\frac{6\,N}{0.8\,kg} +9.807\,\frac{kg}{m^{2}} )}

v\approx 9.302\,\frac{m}{s}

The equation of equilibrium at the bottom of the vertical circle is:

\Sigma F = N - m\cdot g = m \cdot \frac{v^{2}}{R}

The normal force on the car when it is at the bottom of the track is:

N=m\cdot (\frac{v^{2}}{R}+g )

N = (0.8\,kg)\cdot \left(\frac{(9.302\,\frac{m}{s} )^{2}}{5\,m}+ 9.807\,\frac{m}{s^{2}} \right)

N=21.690\,N
