Answer:

B. Millions of years of high pressure and temperature.

  • Millions of years of high pressure and temperature the ancient forests turn into fossil fuels.

Explanation:

Fossil fuels were formed from the dead remains of living organisms millions of years ago. They were formed under high pressure and high temperature.

  • Coal : about 300 million years ago the earth had this forest in low lying wetland areas. Due to natural processes like flooding, these forest god buried under the soil. As more soil deposited over them, they were compressed. Under high pressure and high temperature, dead plants got slowly converted into coal.
  • Petroleum : Petroleum was formed from organisms living in the sea. As these organisms died, their bodies settled at the bottom of the sea and got covered with layers of soil and clay. Over millions of years, absence of air, high pressure and high temperature transformed the dead organisms into Petroleum.

Coal, Petroleum and natural gas are fossil fuels.

CHEGG 42 mT magnetic field points due west. If a proton of kinetic energy 9 x 10-12 J enters this field in an upward direction,
alexdok [17]

Answer:

The  magnitude of the Force is  F = 697 *10^{-15}N  and the direction is South  

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

         The magnetic field point due west and since East point toward the positive x -axis(i)  then this magnetic field would be mathematically represented as

                \= B = 42(-i)mT = 42*10^{-3} (-i) T

Now from the question we are told that the kinetic energy is

             KE = 9*10^{-12}J

Now this kinetic energy can be mathematically represented as

                  KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2

Where m is the mass of proton which has a general value of

           m = 1.67*10^{-27}kg

Now making the subject of the formula

                v = \sqrt{\frac{KE}{0.5 * m} }

Substituting values we have

               v = \sqrt{\frac{9*10^{-12}}{0.5 * 1.67*10^{-27}} }

                 = 10.37*10^7m/s

Now from the question we are told that proton is moving upward which is in the positive z direction so the velocity of the proton would be in the positive

So the velocity would be

            \= v = 10.37*10^{7} \r k \ m/s

Now the magnetic Force can be mathematically represented as

          \= F = q \= v * \=  B

Where q is the charge on the proton which has a general value of  q =1.6*10^{-19}C

Now substituting the value

          \= F = 1.6*10^{-19 } * (10.37 *10^7) \r k * (42 *10^{-3})(-i)

              = 697*10^{-15} J

Now according to Fleming's left hand rule the direction of the magnetic force is south toward the negative Y - direction (-j)

So the force can be denoted as

                 \= F = 697*10^{-15}(-j) N
