A negative charge is moving across a room from south to north. A magnetic field runs from east to west. In what direction is the
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

Downwards

Explanation:

Using Fleming's right hand rule, where the middle finger represents the negative charge moving in the south to north direction, the fore finger represents the magnetic field which points in the east to west direction.

If we are to follow this orientation and place the thumb, middle finger and fore-finger at right angles to each other, the thumb represents the direction of the magnetic force on the charge.

In this case, the magnetic force points downwards after setting the other orientations of the magnetic field and the negative charge's direction.

A rifle bullet with a mass of 11.5 g traveling toward the right at 251 m/s strikes a large bag of sand and penetrates it to a de
BabaBlast [244]

To look for the acceleration, it will come from:

vf^2=v0^2+2ad 
where:
vf = final velocity = 0 
v0 = initial velocity =251 m/s 
a = acceleration 
d= distance traveled = 0.237 m 

0=251^2+2a(0.237 ) 
a= -251 ^2 / (2*0.237) =-132 913.502 m/s/s 

we find the force from: 

F = ma = 0.0115kg*(-1.32x10^5m/s/s) = -1518 N 

the negative sign shows that the force is in the direction contradictory the bullet's motion

When used as an energy source in a nuclear power plant, uranium is burned in a similar way as one would burn wood or coal for en
zavuch27 [327]
False because nuclear fission is used on uranium in nuclear power station and this reaction is continuous since a neutron hits a uranium atom and splits it. Then 2-3 neutrons are released which continues the cycle or hitting other uranium atoms. If this reaction isn't contained, it could get out of control and become a nuclear bomb. So it can't be burned like wood nor coal.
Hope this is helpful. <span />

A +26.3 uC charge qy is repelled by a force
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

+1.46×10¯⁶ C

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Charge 1 (q₁) = +26.3 μC = +26.3×10¯⁶ C

Force (F) = 0.615 N

Distance apart (r) = 0.750 m

Electrical constant (K) = 9×10⁹ Nm²/C²

Charge 2 (q₂) =?

The value of the second charge can be obtained as follow:

F = Kq₁q₂ / r²

0.615 = 9×10⁹ × 26.3×10¯⁶ × q₂ / 0.750²

0.615 = 236700 × q₂ / 0.5625

Cross multiply

236700 × q₂ = 0.615 × 0.5625

Divide both side by 236700

q₂ = (0.615 × 0.5625) / 236700

q₂ = +1.46×10¯⁶ C

NOTE: The force between them is repulsive as stated from the question. This means that both charge has the same sign. Since the first charge has a positive sign, the second charge also has a positive sign. Thus, the value of the second charge is +1.46×10¯⁶ C

When a potassium atom forms an ion, it loses one electron. What is the electrical charge of the potassium ion? *
Ganezh [65]
+1 An electron has a negative charge so losing a charge of -1 from an uncharged, or neutral, atom will leave an ion with a positive charge.
