Answer:

the velocity component parallel to the magnetic field vector

Explanation:

When a charged particle moves in a helical path, we can decompose its velocity into two parts v_parallel and v_perpendicular to the magnetic field.

Let's analyze which component receives a force

            F = q vxB

the bold letters indicate vectors, in the vector product if the two vectors are parallel the angle is zero and the sin 0 = 0 for which there is no force. therefore the velocity parallel to the field remains constant

If the two vectors are perpendicular, the angle is 90º and the sin 90 = 1, for which there is a force, which has a radial direction and consequently a centripetal acceleration that gives a circular path that does not remove the particle from the magnetic field

When checking the different answers, the correct one is: the velocity component parallel to the magnetic field vector

madam [21]

Answer:

ωi = 15.4 rev/sec

Explanation:

Since the movement of the fan is rotating, we are thus dealing with Rotational motion. In rotational motion, for angular speed to take place also means angular acceleration is also occurring.

angular acceleration = α = (change in speed)/(change in time)

angular acceleration = α = Δw/Δt = (ω - ωi) /(t- t₀) ..........(equation 1)

                                      α =  (ω -ωi) /(t- 0)

                                      α =  (ω-ωi) /t

                                      ωi  =  ω - αt ......................................(equation 2)

where ωi is the initial angular speed.

We replace the values for ω, t and α

ωi = 105 rad/sec - ( 4.4 rad/sec² )(1.85s) = 96.86 rad/s = 15.415747788 rev/sec

The experimentation step of scientific inquiry involves _______.
Hoochie [10]
<span>The answer is letter D.

The most important step in formulation a scientific inquiry is to first formulate a question. All answers sprung from a question that scratched the mind. Experimentation is not possible without the need to question, with this, the drive to find the answers is what motivates scientists or people involved in an experiment to find the answers that would suffice their curiosity. Questions are the basis of all the other choices above and is the most crucial step in the scientific inquiry.<span>
