Answer:
a) The sign of the charge is positive.
b) The magnetic force on the particle is 0.050 newtons.
Explanation:
The magnetic force F on a moving charge with velocity v passing through a magnetic field B is:
(1)
a)
Because it is a cross product, we can find the direction of the force using the right-hand rule, that is too the direction of the movement. We have two possibilities here because the velocity vector and magnetic field are perpendicular: the particle deflects towards east or toward west, which depends on the charge of the particle. Note that if you put your right hand fingers, except thumb, pointing towards north (direction of velocity) and later close them in the direction of the magnetic field, if you maintain your thumb perpendicular to this movement it will point towards east (See figure), so that will be de direction of the force if the charge is positive, but if the charge is negative, the direction will be opposite (towards west). So the charge has to be positive to deflects towards east.
b)
Now by 1:
Answer:
Impulse = 90
Resulting Velocity = 89
Explanation:
Use F * change in time = m * change in velocity.
For the first part of the question, the left side of the equation is the impulse. Plug it in.
60 * (3.0 - 0) = 90.
For the second half. we use all parts of the equation. I'm gonna use vf for the final velocity.
60 * (3.0 - 0) = 10 * (vf - 80). Simplify.
90 = 10vf - 800. Simplify again.
890 = 10vf. Divide to simplify and get the answer.
The resulting velocity is 89.
Answer:
Total distance does the grasshopper travel before the cars hit is 150 m
Explanation:
Each car moves x=100 m before they collide. Both the cars moving in constant velocity. time taken t by each car is
where x is the distance traveled with velocity v
The insect is moving through this time period with a constant velocity of 15 m/s
The distance traveled by grasshopper is
The collision is a form of inelastic collision because the
it forms a single mass after is collides. So it can be solve by momentum
balance
( 0.08 kg * 50 m/s ) + ( 0.06 kg * 50 m/s) = ( 0.08 + 0.06
kg ) v
V = 50 m/s
So the kinetic energy lost is
KE = 0.5 (50 m/s)^2) *( 0.14 – 0.08kg )
KE = 75 J
