The Earth's gravity keeps the Moon orbiting us. It keeps changing the direction of the Moon's velocity. This means gravity makes the Moon accelerate all the time, even though its speed remains constant.
Answer:
upward
Explanation:
In the electromagnetic system of force if the direction of motion of proton does not changes it means that the electric and magnetic forces are such a ways that they are cancelling each other's effect.
Since, electric field lines will exert a force on the proton to the west, hence, the magnetic force must force it to the east. It is well known that magnetic force acts perpendicular to the direction of magnetic field. magnetic field should point upward direction.
Answer:
The rod`s charge must be positive, because the gravity force is pointing downwards and the electrostatic force must be pointing upwards (in order to balance the gravity force)
The charge is q_2 = 1.667 times 10^(-7) C
Explanation:
F_e = F_g
where F_g = m g and F_e= (1/4 pi e_0)*(q_1*q_2)/d^2,
