Answer:

the first one says to every action there is equal but opposite in reaction

the second one say the time rate of change in momentum is directly proportional to the applied force

the third one says that a body at rest will continue to be at rest until an external force is acted

An electron, moving south, enters a magnetic field of certain strength. Because of this field the electron curves upward. What i

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer: The magnetic field points to the west.

Explanation:

If we take the plane as:

North = positive y-axis

East = positive x-axis.

We have that the electron is moving south, so the velocity of the electron can be written in vector form as:

V = (0, -v, 0)

Now, when the electron interacts with the magnetic field, the electron moves upwards.

We know that the interaction between an electron and a magnetic field is:

F = q*VxB

So we have that this force acts on the z-direction.

Now, to solve this we can use the righ hand rule.

First, we point wit our hand to the direction of the velocity (negative y-axis) now, we want that our thumb points up (the direction of the force) so the side where our palm faces is the direction of the field B.

But, remember that an electron has a negative charge, so the actual equation is:

F = -q*VxB

So the magnetic field actually points in the opposite direction of our palm, to the west.

Now, we can also solve it mathematically as:

F = (0, 0, f) = -q*(0, -v,0)x(a, b, c)

where B = (a, b, c) is the vector of the magnetic field.

(0, 0, f) = -q*(-v*b -0, -0 + 0, 0 -(- a*v)) = -q*(-v*b, 0, a*v)

then we have that b must be equal to zero, and that:

f = -q*a*v

and f is positive, then we have:

a = -(f/q*v)

then the vector of the magnetic field is:

B = (-(f/q*v), 0, 0)

so it points in the negative x-axis, that is the West, as we found earlier.

An elevator is being pulled up from the ground floor to the third floor by a cable. The cable is exerting 4500 newtons of force

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

The gravitational force on the elevator = 4500N

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The force applied by the elevator, F = 4500 N

The acceleration of the elevator = Not accelerating

From Newton's third law of motion, the action of the cable force is equal to the reaction of the gravitational force on the elevator which is the weight, W and motion of the elevator as follows;

F = W + Mass of elevator × Acceleration of elevator

∴ F = W + Mass of elevator × 0 = W

F = 4500 N = W

The net force on the elevator is F - W = 0

The gravitational force on the elevator = W = 4500N.

When you are on a roller coaster, you are constantly transforming from Potential to Kinetic energy and back. Explain how these e

andreev551 [17]

Answer:

The two types of energy possessed by the roller coaster are:

- Potential energy: it is the energy possessed by the roller coaster due to its position. It is calculated as

$PE=mgh$

where

m is the mass of the roller coaster

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height of the roller coaster relative to the ground

- KInetic energy: it is the energy possessed by the roller coaster due to its motion. It is calculated as

$KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

where

v is the speed of the roller coaster

Moreover, according to the law of conservation of energy, the total mechanical energy of the roller coaster (the sum of potential+kinetic energy) is constant during the motion:

$E=PE+KE=const.$

This implies that:

- When PE increases (because h increases), KE decreases (because v decreases)

- When PE decreases (because h decreases), KE increases (because v increases)

Now we can apply these conclusions to the motion of the roller coaster:

- When it moves from A to B, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, so PE decreases and KE increases

- When it moves from B to C, kinetic energy is converted into potential energy, so PE increases and KE decreases

- When it moves from C to D, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, so PE decreases and KE increases

- When it moves from D to E, kinetic energy is converted into potential energy, so PE increases and KE decreases
