An alpha particle travels at a velocityof magnitudem/s through a uniform magnetic field of magnitude=0.045T. (An alpha particle has a charge ofC and a mass ofkg.) The angle betweenandis 52°. (a)What is the magnitude of the forceacting on the particle due to the field? (b)What is the acceleration of the particle due to?
(c)Does the speed of the particle increase, decrease, or remain the same?
In Figure 28-40, an electron with an initial kinetic energy ofkeV enters region 1 at time t= 0. That region contains a uniform magnetic field directed into the page, with magnitude . The electron goes through a half-circle and then exits region 1, headed toward region 2 across a gap ofcm. There is an electric potential difference ∆V across the gap, with a polarity such that the electron’s speed increases uniformly as it traverses the gap. Region 2 contains a uniform magnetic field directed out of the page, with magnitude T. The electron goes through a half-circle and then leaves region 2. Atwhat time tdoes it leave?

An alpha particle can be produced in certain radioactive decays of nuclei and consists of two protons and two neutrons. The particle has a charge of and a mass of , where is the atomic mass unit, with kg. Suppose an alpha particle travels in a circular path of radius cm in a uniform magnetic field with . Calculate (a) its speed (b) its period of revolution, (c) its kinetic energy, and (d)the potential difference through which it would have to be accelerated to achieve this energy.
Two concentric, circular wire loops, of radii r1 = 20.0cm and r2 = 30.0 cm, are located in an xyplane; each carries a clockwise current of 7.00 A (Figure).
(a) Find the magnitude of the net magnetic dipole moment of the system.
(b) Repeat for reversed current in the inner loop.
