Sam drives her scooter 7 kilometres north. She stops for lunch and then drives
1 answer:
Answer:
1. Distance travelled = 12 km.
2. Displacement = 8.6 km
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Distance 1 (d₁) = 7 km
Distance 2 (d₂) = 5 km
Total distance =?
Displacement =?
1. Determination of the distance travelled.
Distance 1 (d₁) = 7 km
Distance 2 (d₂) = 5 km
Total distance (dₜ) =?
dₜ = d₁ + d₂
dₜ = 7 + 5
dₜ = 12 km
2. Determination of the displacement.
In the attached photo, R is the displacement.
We can obtain the value of R by using the pythagoras theory as illustrated below:
R² = 7² + 5²
R² = 49 + 25
R² = 74
Take the square root of both side
R = √74
R = 8.6 km

The time interval for which the proton remains in the field is -
Δt = .
We have a proton entering a uniform magnetic field which is in a direction perpendicular to the proton's velocity.
We have to determine time interval during which the proton is in the field.
<h3>What is the magnitude of force on the charged particle moving in a uniform magnetic field?</h3>The magnitude of force on the charged particle moving in a uniform magnetic field is given by -
F = qvB sinθ
According to the question, we have -
Entering Velocity (v) = 20 i m/s
Magnetic field intensity (B) = 0.3 T
Leaving velocity (u) = - 20 j m/s
Now -
The entering and leaving velocity vectors have 90 degrees difference between them. Therefore, only a quarter of distance of the complete circular path of radius 'R' is traced by the proton. Therefore -
d = =
Since, the radius of circular path is not given, we will assume it R.
Therefore, time for which proton remained in the field is -
t =
Hence, the time interval for which the proton remains in the field is -
Δt =
