Answer:
The velocity is 31.25 m/s and direction is toward west.
Explanation:
Given that,
Distance 
Magnetic field 
Mass of proton 
Radius of earth 
Radius of orbit 


We need to calculate the speed
Using formula of magnetic field


Put the value into the formula


Hence, The velocity is 31.25 m/s and direction is toward west.
Potential energy at top:
PE = mgh
PE = 40 x 9.81 x 12
P.E = 4,708.8 J
Kinetic energy at bottom:
KE = 1/2 mv²
KE = 1/2 x 40 x 10²
K.E = 2,000 J
P.E = K.E + Frictional losses
Frictional losses = 4708 - 2000
Frictional losses = 2708 J
The answer is D.
Answer:we can calculate the answer by the following formula;
