Magnetic field due to negative charge

AI Thread Summary
A negative charge of -7.20 mC is moving at a speed of 800 m/s, generating a magnetic field of 6.0 x 10^(-9) T at a specific point. The discussion seeks to determine the x-, y-, and z-components of the charge's velocity. Participants are encouraged to share their thoughts on how to approach the problem. The focus remains on calculating the velocity components based on the given parameters. Understanding the relationship between charge movement and magnetic field generation is crucial for solving this problem.

I hope you could help me out with this...

A negative charge q=-7.20mC is moving in a reference frame. When the point charge is at the origin the magnetic field it produces at point (25.o cm,0,0) magnetic field is B= (6.0 x10^(-9)T) j("unit vector") and its speed is 800 m/s . what is the x-.y-. z-components of the velocity of charge??

thanks

Thread 'Variable mass system : water sprayed into a moving container'
Starting with the mass considerations #m(t)# is mass of water #M_{c}# mass of container and #M(t)# mass of total system $$M(t) = M_{C} + m(t)$$ $$\Rightarrow \frac{dM(t)}{dt} = \frac{dm(t)}{dt}$$ $$P_i = Mv + u \, dm$$ $$P_f = (M + dm)(v + dv)$$ $$\Delta P = M \, dv + (v - u) \, dm$$ $$F = \frac{dP}{dt} = M \frac{dv}{dt} + (v - u) \frac{dm}{dt}$$ $$F = u \frac{dm}{dt} = \rho A u^2$$ from conservation of momentum , the cannon recoils with the same force which it applies. $$\quad \frac{dm}{dt}...
TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
