There is a uniform magnetic field of magnitude B, pervading all space, perpendicular to the plane of rod and rails. The rod is r

The right hand rule to find the direction of the magnetic field for a falling bar is:
- The charge is positive the magnetic field is outgoing, horizontally and towards us.
- The charge of the bar is negative, the magnetic field is incoming, that is horizontal away from us.
The magnetic force is given by the vector product of the velocity and the magnetic field.
F = q v x B
Where the bolds indicate vectors, F is the force, q the charge on the particle, v the velocity and B the magnetic field.
In the vector product, the vectors are perpendicular, which is why the right-hand rule has been established, see attached:
- The thumb points in the direction of speed.
- Fingers extended in the direction of the magnetic field.
- The palm is in the direction of the force if the charge is positive and in the opposite direction if the charge is negative.
They indicate that the bar is dropped, therefore its speed is vertical and downwards, it moves to the left therefore this is the direction of the force, we use the right hand rule, the magnetic field must be horizontal, we have two possibilities:
- If the charge is positive the magnetic field is outgoing, horizontally and towards us.
- If the charge of the bar is negative, the magnetic field is incoming, that is, horizontal away from us
In conclusion using the right hand rule we can find the direction of the magnetic field for a falling bar is:
- The charge of the bar is negative, the magnetic field is incoming, that is horizontal away from us.
- The charge is positive the magnetic field is outgoing, horizontally and towards us.

The order of the location of each process in the carbon cycle are as follows;
- <u>Ingestion → Decomposition → Fossilization → Combustion </u>
Reasons:
Ingestion; During the ingestion process, the products of the direct Sunlight and photosynthesis, which
are energy rich chemical substances are ingested by herbivores.
Decomposition; The plants and animals die and undergo decomposition.
Fossilization; A long period the decomposed plants and animals manifest
into hard petrified materials, with their parts transformed to fossils.
Combustion; The remains of plants and animals, subjected to heat and
pressure due to compression, as when as bacteria decomposition that
removes several other elements, leaving a carbon and hydrogen rich
sludge that can be processed into fuel used for combustion. The
combustion process produces carbon dioxide which restarts the cycle.
