What is the displacement of a student who walks 12 m North, 5 m West, 3 m South,

Physics
1 answer:
Contact [7]3 years ago
6 0

When you draw all 4 of those moves, you see that he winds up 9m North and 11m West of where he started.

So the magnitude of his displacement is

D = √(9² + 11²)  m²

D = √(81 + 121)  m²

D = √(202)  m²

<em>D = 14.2 m</em>

The direction is arctan(-11/9) = <em>50.7° west of North</em>

After landing on an unexplored Klingon planet, Spock tests for the direction of the magnetic field by firing a beam of electrons
BARSIC [14]

Answer:

Magnetic field is in south west direction .

Explanation:

Let us represent various direction by  i , j, k . i representing east , j representing north and k representing vertically upward direction .

magnetic field is represented vectorially as follows

B = B₀ ( - i - j )

In the first case velocity of electron

v = v k

Force = q ( v x B )

= -e [ vk x B₀ ( - i - j ) ]

= evB₀ ( j -i )

Direction of force is north -west .

In the second case velocity of electron

v = vj

Force = -e [ vj x B₀ ( - i - j ) ]

= - evB₀ k

force is downward

In the third case, velocity of electron

v = v( -j +i )

Force = -e [ v( -j +i ) x B₀ ( - i - j ) ]

= 2 evB₀ k

Force is upward.

(e) For photons of energy 7.10 eV, what stopping potential would be required to arrest the current of photoelectrons
Masja [62]

2.37eV stopping potential would be required to arrest the current of photoelectrons.

<h3 /><h3>What is stopping potential ?</h3>

The minimal negative voltage that must be provided to the anode to halt the photocurrent is known as stopping potential. When expressed in electron volts, the maximal kinetic energy of the electrons is equal to the stopping voltage.

Kmax = eV₀

2.37eV = eV₀

V₀ = 2.37eV

two children having a disagreement pull on a 50N sled in opposite directions. one pulls with a force of 300N east, the other wit
prohojiy [21]
<span>Since forces are vector quantities, we must indicate direction using positive and negative values. East will be assigned positive and west will be negative. Friction will act as a negative force since it impedes action. To calculate the net force we sum the vector quantities, as follows. Net force equals 50n which is derived by the following calculation: 300n-220n-30n.</span>
