Answer:

This seems to be incomplete, as we do not have any information about the magnetic field surrounding the wire, but we can answer in a general way.

We know that for a wire of length L, with a current I, and in a magnetic field B, the force can be written as:

F = L*(IxB)

if we define the right as the positive x-axis, and knowing that the current flows to the right, we can write:

I = i*(1, 0, 0)

And the field will be some random vector that can't be parallel to the current because in that case, we do not have any force.

To find the direction of the force, which will tell us the direction in which the wire deflects or moves, first, we need to point with our thumb in the direction of the current, in this case, to the right.

Now, with the hand open, using the tip of our other fingers we point in the direction of the magnetic field.

For example, if the magnetic field is in the positive z-axis, we will point upwards.

Now the palm of our hand tells us in which direction the force is applied.

This is the right-hand rule.

For example, in the case that the current goes to the right and the magnetic field is upwards, we could see that the force is to the front.

maks197457 [2]

Answer: A) highly mobile electrons in the valence shell

Explanation: conductivity in metals is a result of the movement of electrically charged particles—the electrons. These free electrons also known as valence electrons are free to move, and as a result they can travel through the lattice that forms the physical structure of a metal. The presence of valence electrons determines a metal's conductivity. However, several other factors can affect the conductivity of a metal such as impurities, temperature, magnetic fields etc.

seraphim [82]

Answer:

Explanation:

There is no set way to do this. All you have to do is define left and right. Left will be minus and right will be the opposite --- plus.

That is completely arbitrary. It could be the other way around. It does not matter.

Left is minus so: - 600 N   is the force going left.

Right plus so: + 500 N

Now just add.

Net Force = +500 - 600

Net Force = - 100 N

So the Net Force is - 100 N going to the left.

A bus is moving at a speed of 150km/hr. Begins to slow at a constant rate of 3.0m/s each second. Find how far it goes before sto
ladessa [460]

Answer:

Distance = 13.9 meters

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Maximum speed = 150 km/hr to meters per seconds = 150 * 1000/3600 = 41.67 m/s

Decelerating speed = 3m/s

To find the distance travelled with this speed;

Distance = maximum speed/decelerating speed

Distance = 41.67/3

Distance = 13.9 meters

Therefore, the bus would travel a distance of 13.9 meters before stopping.
