Answer:
Downwards
Explanation:
Using Fleming's right hand rule, where the middle finger represents the negative charge moving in the south to north direction, the fore finger represents the magnetic field which points in the east to west direction.
If we are to follow this orientation and place the thumb, middle finger and fore-finger at right angles to each other, the thumb represents the direction of the magnetic force on the charge.
In this case, the magnetic force points downwards after setting the other orientations of the magnetic field and the negative charge's direction.
Answer:
potential energy
kinetic energy
thermal energy
Explanation:
The book's potential energy can be released by knocking it off the table. As the book falls, its potential energy is converted to kinetic energy. When the book hits the floor this kinetic energy is converted into heat and sound by the impact.
In case of an object sitting at rest on another base, there are two equal and opposite forces – Normal force and the gravity.
Answer: Option A
<u>Explanation:
</u>
When an object is placed at rest position on another object, there is a force exerted by the surfaces of the two contact objects. This force is denoted as Normal Force.
When an object such as a box is placed on a shelf, its surface exerts a contact force on the base of the shelf- The Normal force directed upward. Meanwhile, the gravity stays at its action and tries to pull the box towards itself.
Both of these forces however are equal and opposite and therefore, there is zero net force on the box. That's why it remains at rest, holding on Newton's third law.
