A proton traveling due west in a region that contains only a magnetic field experiences a vertically upward force (away from the

surface of the earth). What is the direction of the magnetic field?
Physics

South

Explanation:

The magnetic force F on a point charge moving with a velocity v in the presence of a magnetic field B is given by

\vec{\textbf{F}} = q\vec{\textbf{v}}\textbf{×}\vec{\textbf{B}}

and according to the right-hand rule, an upward magnetic force on a proton moving westward is only possible if the magnetic field is directed southward.

The Coefficient of kinetic friction between the tires of your car and the roadway is \"μ\". (a) If your initial speed is \"v\" a
vazorg [7]
We make use of the equation: v^2=v0^2+2a Δd. We substitute v^2 equals to zero since the final state is halting the truck. Hence we get the equation           -<span>v0^2/2a = Δd. F = m a from the second law of motion. Rearranging, a = F/m
</span>F = μ Fn where the force to stop the truck is the force perpendicular or normal force multiplied by the static coefficient of friction. We substitute, -v0^2/2<span>μ Fn/m</span> = Δd. This is equal to

a sphere of diameter 6•0cm is moulded into a thin uniform wire of diameter 0•2mm.calculate the length of the wire in metres​
Scilla [17]

The length of the wire is 36 m.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given, Diameter of sphere = 6 cm

We know that, radius can be found by taking the half in the diameter value. So,

       \text { sphere radius, } R=\frac{D}{2}=\frac{6}{2}=3 \mathrm{cm}=3 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{m}

Similarly,

      \text { wire radius, } r=\frac{0.2}{2}=0.1 \mathrm{mm}=1 \times 10^{-3} \mathrm{m}

We know the below formulas,

          \text {volume of sphere}=\frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times R^{3}

          \text {volume of wire}=\pi \times r^{2} \times l

When equating both the equations, we can find length of wire as below, where \pi=\frac{22}{7}

          \frac{4}{3} \times \pi \times R^{3}=\pi \times r^{2} \times l

         \frac{4}{3} \times \frac{22}{7} \times\left(3 \times 10^{-2}\right)^{3}=\frac{22}{7} \times\left(1 \times 10^{-3}\right)^{2} \times l

The \pi value gets cancelled as common on both sides, we get

           \frac{4}{3} \times 27 \times 10^{-6}=10^{-6} \times l

The 10^{-6} value gets cancelled as common on both sides, we get

           l=4 \times 9=36 m

Assuming there are no accidents or delays, the distance that a car travels down the interstate
Ganezh [65]

Explanation:

The distance that a car travels down the interstate  can be calculated with the following formula:

Distance = Speed x Time

(A) Speed of the car, v = 70 miles per hour = 31.29 m/s

Time, d = 6 hours = 21600 s

Distance = Speed x Time

D = 31.29 m/s × 21600 s

D = 675864 meters

or

D=6.75\times 10^5\ m

(b) Time, d = 10 hours = 36000 s

Distance = Speed x Time

D = 31.29 m/s × 36000 s

D = 1126440 meters

or

D=1.12\times 10^6\ m

(c) Time, d = 15 hours = 54000 s

Distance = Speed x Time

D = 31.29 m/s × 54000 s

D = 1689660 meters

or

D=1.68\times 10^6\ m

Hence, this is the required solution.
