The electron's path in the magnetic field is a straight line when viewed from above.
In fact, the electron initially moves upward, while the magnetic field is directed horizontally. The electron experiences a force due to the magnetic field (the Lorentz force), whose direction is given by the right-hand rule:
- index finger --> initial direction of the electron (upward)
- middle finger --> direction of the magnetic field (horizontally, away from the observer)
- opposite direction to the thumb* --> direction of the force (horizontally, but perpendicular to the magnetic field, to the right)
This means that the Lorentz force makes the electron moving perpendicular to the magnetic field in the horizontal plane, and since the direction of the field is not changing, this force does not change its direction, so the electron moves in the same direction of the force in the horizontal plane (to the right), therefore following a straight line.
* the direction should be reversed because the charge is negative.
Answer:
Explanation:
Expression for time period of pendulum is given as follows
where l is length of pendulum and g is acceleration due to gravity .
Putting the given values for first place
Putting the values for second place
Dividing these two equation
T = 2.66455 s.
Answer:
1) 50°
Explanation:
We need to find the angle of incidence first before finding the angle of reflection.
Angle of incidence = 90° - 40°
= 50°
Since the angle of incidence is the same as the angle of reflection, the angle of reflection here would be 50°.
The correct answer is B. barometer
Thermometer is used to measure temperature, anemometer is used to measure wind speed, while a hygrometer is used to measure humidity.
The state of the atmosphere at a given place and time as regards to heat, dryness sunshine, wind, rain, etc.
