Explanation:

Newton's first law states that, if a body is at rest or moving at a constant speed in a straight line, it will remain at rest or keep moving in a straight line at constant speed unless it is acted upon by a force.

What is the angular displacement of a minute hand of a clock after 3 minutes?

Inessa [10]

Answer:

π/10 rads

Explanation:

It takes an hour (60 minutes) for the minute's hand to turn a full circle or achieve an angular rotation of

2πl rad.

Now, number of periods of 3 minutes in an hour is;

Number of periods = 60/3 = 20 periods

Thus, 3 minutes rotation accounts for 1/20 of 2π the rotation of the minute's hand in an hour.

Thus;

Angular displacement = (1/20) * 2π = π/10 rads

Answer:

The acceleration would be $a = 0.003* 6 =0.018\ m/s^2$

Explanation:

The objective of this solution is to obtain the acceleration of the particle

Now looking at Newton law which is mathematically represented as

$F = ma$

Where F is the force experience by a particle

m is the mass of the particle

a is the acceleration of the particle

And also this force is equivalent to magnetic force in a magnetic field which is mathematically represented as

$F = qvB$

Where q is the charge of the particle

v is the velocity of the charge

B is the magnetic field the charge is under it influence

Now equating this two formulas

$ma = qvB$

Making a the subject we have

$a = \frac{qvB}{m}$

In the question the direction of the is in the positive x-axis which is $i$ hence the direction would be in the $i$ direction

So substituting $(2.0i +3.0j+4.0k)mT = (2.0i +3.0j+4.0k)*10^{-3}T$ for B

$a = \frac{q}{m} * v (2.0i +3.0j +4.0k)*10^{-3}$

Substituting $3.0 Km /s = 3.0*10^{3}\ m/s$ for v and $-6.0 \muC = -6.0*10^{-6} C$ for q

$a = \frac{-6.0*10^{-6}}{2.0*10^{-3}} * 3.0*10^{3} *(2i+3j+4k) *10^{-3}$

$a = 0.003 * 3i(2i+3j+4k)$

$a = 0.003 *((3*2)i \ \cdot i \ +(3*3) i \ \cdot \ j \ + (3*4)i \ \cdot \ k)$

According to vector multiplication

$i \cdot i = j \cdot j = k\cdot k = 1\\\\and \ i\cdot j = i\cdot k = 0$

$a = 0.003* 6 =0.018\ m/s^2$

4. ________ have a positive charge

xz_007 [3.2K]

A proton has positive charge of 1, that is, equal but opposite to the charge of an electron. A neutron, like the name implies, is neutral with no net charge. The charge is believed to be from the charge of the quarks that make up the nucleons (protons and neutrons).
