Khaled said the North star is special because it appears all over the world and its changes position.

Crank

Answer:

A. The electric field points to the left because the force on a negative charge is opposite to the direction of the field.

Explanation:

The electric force exerted on a charge by an electric field is given by:

where

F is the force

q is the charge

E is the electric field

We see that if the charge is negative, q contains a negative sign, so the force F and the electric field E will have opposite signs (which means they have opposite directions). This is due to the fact that the direction of the lines of an electric field shows the direction of the electric force experienced by a positive charge in that electric field: therefore, a negative charge will experience a force into opposite direction.

How to calculate displacement?

Blizzard [7]

-- Take a straight ruler.

-- Lay it down with the 'zero' mark at the start point.

-- Rotate it around the start point until the end point is also touching the edge of the ruler.

-- From the marks on the ruler, read the straight-line distance from the start point to the end point.

-- Without moving the ruler, observe and write down the DIRECTION from the start point to the end point.

-- The Displacement is the straight-line distance and direction from the start point to the end point.

1. A DC-10 jumbo jet maintains an airspeed of 550 mph in a southwesterly direction. The velocity of the jet stream is a constant

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The magnitude of actual velocity is <u>496.67 mph</u> and its direction is <u>51.54° with the x axis in the third quadrant</u>.

Explanation:

Given:

Speed of jumbo jet in southwesterly direction $(v_j)$ = 550 mph

Velocity of jet stream from west to east direction $(v_s)=80\ mph$

First let us draw a vectorial representation of the above velocity vectors.

Consider the south direction as negative y axis and west direction as negative x axis.

From the diagram,

The velocity of the jet can be represented as:

$\vec{v_j}=-550\cos(45)\vec{i}+(-550\sin(45)\vec{j} )\\\\\vec{v_j}=-388.91\vec{i}-388.91\vec{j}\ mph$

Similarly, the velocity of the stream is, $\vec{v_s}=80\vec{i}$

Now, the vector sum of the above two vectors gives the actual velocity of the aircraft. So, the resultant velocity is given as:

$\vec{v}=\vec{v_j}+\vec{v_s}\\\\\vec{v}=-388.91\vec{i}-388.91\vec{j}+80\vec{i}\\\\\vec{v}=(-388.91+80)\vec{i}-388.91\vec{j}\\\\\vec{v}=(-308.91)\vec{i}-388.91\vec{j}$

Now, magnitude is given as the square root of sum of the squares of the 'i' and 'j' components. So,

$|\vec{v}|=\sqrt{(-308.91)^2+(-388.91)^2}\\\\|\vec{v}|=496.67\ mph$

As the horizontal and vertical components of actual velocity negative, the resultant vector makes an angle $\theta$ with the x axis in the third quadrant.
