Answer:

The displacement of Sudhir is 0.781 km.

Explanation:

Given;

initial distance, d₁ = 0.4 km = 400 m, N60.0°W

final distance, d₂ = 0.5 km

Make a sketch of Sudhir motion to form a right angled triangle;

(Check image uploaded).

Apply cosine rule to determine d "displacement"

d² = 500² + 400² - (2 x 500 x 400 x cos 120)

d² = 410,000 - (400,000 x -0.5)

d² = 410,000 - (-200,000)

d² = 410,000  + 200,000

d² = 610,000

d = √610000

d = 781.03 m

d = 0.781 km

Therefore, the displacement of Sudhir is 0.781 km.

A proton enters a uniform magnetic field of strength 2 T at 300 m/s. The magnetic field is oriented perpendicular to the proton’
sattari [20]

Answer:

Magnetic force, F=9.6\times 10^{-17}\ N

Explanation:

It is given that,

Magnetic field, B = 2 T

Velocity of the proton, v = 300 m/s

Charge on the proton, q=1.6\times 10^{-19}\ C

The magnetic field is oriented perpendicular to the proton’s velocity. The magnetic force on the charged particle is given by :

F=qvB\ sin\theta

The magnetic field is oriented perpendicular to the proton’s velocity, \theta=90^{\circ}

F=1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 300\times 2

F=9.6\times 10^{-17}\ N

So, the magnitude of the force that the proton experiences while it moves through the magnetic field is 9.6\times 10^{-17}\ N. Hence, this is the required solution.
