Answer:

<em>The magnitude of the force exerted by the person is 100 N</em>

Explanation:

<u>Net Force</u>

According to the second Newton's law, the net force exerted by an external agent on an object of mass m is:

Fn = ma

Where a is the acceleration of the object.

The net force is the sum of all forces exerted over a body. When an object is moved along a rough surface it experiences two horizontal forces and two vertical forces (provided there is no vertical component of the applied force).

The vertical forces are the Normal and the Weight and they are balanced, i.e.: N = W = mg.

The horizontal forces are The applied force (Fa) and the friction force (Fr). They are not balanced because the object is accelerated in that direction. The net force is:

Fn = Fa - Fr

Applying the first equation:

Fa - Fr = ma

Solving for Fa:

Fa = Fr + ma

Substituting the given values m=5 kg, Fr=10 N, a=18\ m/s^2.

Fa = 10 + 5*18 = 10 + 90 = 100

Fa = 100 N

The magnitude of the force exerted by the person is 100 N

A charged particle accelerated to a velocity v enters the chamber of a mass spectrometer. The particle's velocity is perpendicul
gladu [14]

Answer:

Circle

Explanation:

When a charged particle is in motion in a region with magnetic field, the particle experiences a force whose magnitude is given by

F=qvB sin \theta

where

q is the charge

v is the velocity of the particle

B is the strength of the magnetic field

\theta is the angle between the directions of v and B

In this problem, the velocity of the particle is perpendicular to the magnetic field, so

\theta=90^{\circ}

and the formula reduces to

F=qvB

Also, the direction of this force is perpendicular to the direction of motion of the particle. This means that as the charge moves in the region of the magnetic field, the force acting on it acts as a centripetal force: therefore, the particle will start moving by unifom circular motion, with constant speed (because the magnetic force does no work on the particle, since it is perpendicular to the direction of motion).

So, the path of the particle will be a circle.
