To determine The magnitude and direction of the force on the muon. Explanation According to the right hand rule, the direction of force is towards west. Write the expression for the force. F B = q v B sin θ Here, q is the charge, v is the velocity, B is the magnetic field and θ is the angle. Conclusion: Substitute 1.602 × 10 − 19 C for q , 4.5 × 10 7 m / s for v , 5.0 × 10 − 5 T for B and 55 ° + 90 ° for θ in the above equation. F B = ( 1

Magnetic Field Of Coaxial Cable

The word coaxial means same axis. So for a long straight cable to be coaxial, it must have concentric cylindrical shaped conductor around it. Coaxial cable (popularly called ‘coax’) has various applications ranging from current conductors to radiofrequen…

As shown in the figure, a 0.580 kg object is pushed against a horizontal spring of negligible mass until the spring is compressed a distance x. The force constant of the spring is 450 N/m. When it is released, the object travels along a frictionless, horizontal surface to point A, the bottom of a vertical circular track of radius R = 1.00 m, and continues to move up the track. The speed of the object at the bottom of the track is VA = 13.0 m/s, and the object experiences an average frictional force of 7.00 N while sliding up the track. R (a) What is x? m A (b) If the object were to reach the top of the track, what would be its speed (in m/s) at that point? m/s (c) Does the object actually reach the top of the track, or does it fall off before reaching the top? O reaches the top of the track O falls off before reaching the top ○ not enough information to tell

A block of mass 1.4 kg is attached to a horizontal spring that has a force constant 900 N/m as shown in the figure below. The spring is compressed 2.0 cm and is then released from rest. wwww wwwwww a F x = 0 0 b i (a) A constant friction force of 4.4 N retards the block's motion from the moment it is released. Using an energy approach, find the position x of the block at which its speed is a maximum. ст (b) Explore the effect of an increased friction force of 13.0 N. At what position of the block does its maximum speed occur in this situation? cm

You have a new internship, where you are helping to design a new freight yard for the train station in your city. There will be a number of dead-end sidings where single cars can be stored until they are needed. To keep the cars from running off the tracks at the end of the siding, you have designed a combination of two coiled springs as illustrated in the figure below. When a car moves to the right in the figure and strikes the springs, they exert a force to the left on the car to slow it down. Total force (N) 2000 1500 1000 500 Distance (cm) 10 20 30 40 50 60 i Both springs are described by Hooke's law and have spring constants k₁ = 1,900 N/m and k₂ = 2,700 N/m. After the first spring compresses by a distance of d = 30.0 cm, the second spring acts with the first to increase the force to the left on the car in the figure. When the spring with spring constant k₂ compresses by 50.0 cm, the coils of both springs are pressed together, so that the springs can no longer compress. A typical…
