Answer:

a) v=6.898\times 10^{6}\ m.s^{-1} is the speed of each proton

b) F_c=3.97\times 10^{-13}\ N

Explanation:

Given:

radius of path of motion, r=0.2\ m

we know charge on protons, q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

magnetic field strength, B=0.36\ T

we've mass of proton, m=1.67\times 10^{-27}\ kg

a)

From the equivalence of magnetic force and the centripetal force on the proton:

F_B=F_C

q.v.B=\frac{m.v^2}{r}

q.B=\frac{m.v}{r}

where:

v = speed of the proton

(1.6\times 10^{-19})\times 0.36=\frac{1.67\times 10^{-27}\times v}{0.2}

v=6.898\times 10^{6}\ m.s^{-1} is the speed of each proton

b)

Now the centripetal force on each proton:

F_c=m.\frac{v^2}{r}

F_c=1.67\times 10^{-27}\times \frac{(6.898\times 10^6)^2}{0.2}

F_c=3.97\times 10^{-13}\ N

A 60kg bicyclist (including the bicycle) is pedaling to the
Fittoniya [83]

a) 4 forces

b) 186 N

c) 246 N

Explanation:

a)

Let's count the forces acting on the bicylist:

1) Weight (W=mg): this is the gravitational force exerted on the bicyclist by the Earth, which pulls the bicyclist towards the Earth's centre; so, this force acts downward (m = mass of the bicyclist, g = acceleration due to gravity)

2) Normal reaction (N): this is the reaction force exerted by the road on the bicyclist. This force acts vertically upward, and it balances the weight, so its magnitude is equal to the weight of the bicyclist, and its direction is opposite

3) Applied force (F_A): this is the force exerted by the bicylicist to push the bike forward. Its direction is forward

4) Air drag (R): this is the force exerted by the air on the bicyclist and resisting the motion of the bike; its direction is opposite to the motion of the bike, so it is in the backward direction

So, we have 4 forces in total.

b)

Here we can find the net force on the bicyclist by using Newton's second law of motion, which states that the net force acting on a body is equal to the product between the mass of the body and its acceleration:

F_{net}=ma

where

F_{net} is the net force

m is the mass of the body

a is its acceleration

In this problem we have:

m = 60 kg is the mass of the bicyclist

a=3.1 m/s^2 is its acceleration

Substituting, we find the net force on the bicyclist:

F_{net}=(60)(3.1)=186 N

c)

We can write the net force acting on the bicyclist in the horizontal direction as the resultant of the two forces acting along this direction, so:

F_{net}=F_a-R

where:

F_{net} is the net force

F_a is the applied force (forward)

R is the air drag (backward)

In this problem we have:

F_{net}=186 N is the net force (found in part b)

R=60 N is the magnitude of the air drag

Solving for F_a, we find the force produced by the bicyclist while pedaling:

F_a=F_{net}+R=186+60=246 N

How does this diagram demonstrate the law of superposition?
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

well, as u can tell the top layer will always be the youngest layer aka the newest layer. The farther u go down the older the layers get. So the deeper u dig the farther back in time we see.

They discovered a vaccine to reduce illnesses, specifically Polio and Influenza. The work of Salk and Sabin has almost eradicated what was once a deadly disesase ( polio) . For example, there were 350,000 deaths related to poliovirus  across the world in 1988 and they reduced to 22 in 2017. Also, their work has saved millions of lives from polio induced paralysis
