a. The angle of deflection will be exactly 45°
b. The angle of deflection will be greater than 90°
c. The angle of deflection will be less than 45°
d. The angle of deflection will be exactly 0°
e. The angle of deflection will be greater than 45° but less than 90°

a. The angle of deflection will be exactly 45°
b. The angle of deflection will be greater than 90°
c. The angle of deflection will be less than 45°

Answer:

1) The angle of deflection will be less than 45° ( C )

2)  The angle of deflection will be greater than 45° but less than 90° ( E )

Explanation:

1) Assuming that the force applied  has a direction which is perpendicular to the Earth's magnetic field

∴ Fearth > Fapplied   hence the angle of deflection will be < 45°

2) when the Fearth < Fapplied

the angle of deflection will be :   > 45°  but  < 90°

Consume energy.

Option A represents a swicth, option B represents a luminaire and option D represents a voltage source.

So, the correct option is C,

What will happen to the force felt between two charged objects if the distance between them is 1/3rd of the original distance
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

New force = 9(initial force)

Explanation:

The force between two charges is given by :

F=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}

Where

d is the original distance

Let d' is the new distance such that, r' = r/3

New force,

F'=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r'^2}\\\\F'=\dfrac{kq_1q_2}{(\dfrac{r}{3})^2}\\\\F'=9\times \dfrac{kq_1q_2}{r^2}\\\\F'=9F

So, the new force becomes 9 times the initial force.

A ball is thrown vertically upward with a speed of 1.86
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

t = 1.09 s.

Explanation:

This is a one-dimensional kinematics question, so the equations of kinematics will be sufficient to solve the question.

y-y_0 = v_0t + \frac{1}{2}at^2\\0 - 3.82 = 1.86t +\frac{1}{2}(-9.8)t^2\\-3.82 = 1.86t - \frac{1}{2}9.8t^2\\4.9t^2 - 1.86t - 3.82 = 0

This quadratic equation can be solved using determinant.

\Delta = b^2 - 4ac\\t_{1,2} = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{\Delta} }{2a}\\t_1 = 1.09~s\\t_2 = -0.71~s

Of course, we will choose the positive time.

A parallel plate capacitor is charged up by a battery. The battery is then disconnected, but the charge remains on the plates. T
larisa [96]

Answer:

a. Decreases

b. Increases

c. Remains the same

d. Increases

Explanation:

a. Capacitance is given by c= Ak€/d

where A is conductivity plate with Area

K is a constant

€ is dielectric with permittivity.

d is the distance

b. Potential difference is given by

V = Ed, since, the electric field remains the

same, the potential diterence also increases with increase in distance.

Since the capacitance depends upon the distance, and all the other factors are kept constant, the capacitance decreases.

c. Electric field remains the same because charge on the

plate remains the same.

d. since electric field remains the same and capacitance decreases, the energy increases.

E= 1/2c * Q^2

A vertical spring (spring constant =160 N/m) is mounted on the floor. A 0.340-kg block is placed on top of the spring and pushed
AleksandrR [38]

(a) 3.5 Hz

The angular frequency in a spring-mass system is given by

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{k}{m}}

where

k is the spring constant

m is the mass

Here in this problem we have

k = 160 N/m

m = 0.340 kg

So the angular frequency is

\omega=\sqrt{\frac{160 N/m}{0.340 kg}}=21.7 rad/s

And the frequency of the motion instead is given by:

f=\frac{\omega}{2\pi}=\frac{21.7 rad/s}{2\pi}=3.5 Hz

(b) 0.021 m

The block is oscillating up and down together with the upper end of the spring. The block will lose contact with the spring when the direction of motion of the spring changes: this occurs when the spring is at maximum displacement, so at

x = A

where A is the amplitude of the motion.

The maximum displacement is given by Hook's law:

F=kA

where

F is the force applied initially to the spring, so it is equal to the weight of the block:

F=mg=(0.340 kg)(9.81 m/s^2)=3.34 N

k = 160 N/m is the spring constant

Solving for A, we find

A=\frac{F}{k}=\frac{3.34 N}{160 N/m}=0.021 m
