Question: A proton travels through uniform magnetic and electric fields. The magnetic fieldis B→=-2.5i^mT.At one instant the velocity of the proton is v→=2000j^m/s At that instant and in unit-vector notation, what is the net force acting on the proton if the electric field is (a) role="math" localid="1663233256112" 4.00k^V/m, (b) -4.00k^V/mand (c)4.00i^V/m?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. F→=1.44×10-18k^N
  2. F→=1.60×10-19k^N
  3. F→=6.41×10-19i^N+8.01×10-19k^N

Step by step solution

01

Step 1: Given

B→=-2.5i^mT

v→=2000j^m/s

02

Determining the concept

The total force acting on the charged particle is the sum of the forces due to electric and magnetic fields.

Formulae are as follow:

Force acting on the charged particle due to electric field,

Fe=qE

Force acting on the charged particle due to magnetic field,

Fm=qvB

Where, Fm is magnetic force, v is velocity, B is magnetic field, q is charge of particle.

03

(a) Determining the net force acting on the proton if the electric field is 4.00k^ V/m 

The net force on the proton when E→=4.00k^V/m:

F→=qE→+V→×B→F→=1.6×10-194.00k^+2000j^×-2.5×10-3i^F→=1.6×10-194.00k^+5.00k^F→=1.44×10-18k^N

Hence, the net force acting on the proton is F→=1.44×10-18k^N

04

(b) Determining the net force acting on the proton if the electric field is -4.00k^ V/m

Then net force on the proton when E→=-4.00k^V/m:

F→=qE→+V→×B→F→=1.6×10-19-4.00k^+2000j^×-2.5×10-3i^F→=1.6×10-19-4.00k^+5.00k^F→=1.60×10-19k^N

Hence, the net force acting on the proton is F→=1.60×10-19k^N

05

(c) Determining the  net force acting on the proton if the electric field is-4.00i^ V/m

The net force on the proton when E→=4.00i^V/m

F→=qE→+V→×B→F→=1.6×10-194.00i^+2000j^×-2.5×10-3i^F→=1.6×10-194.00i^+5.00k^F→=6.41×10-19i^N+8.01×10-19k^N

Hence, the net force acting on the proton is F→=6.41×10-19i^N+8.01×10-19k^N.

Therefore, the values of net force due to different electric fields can be determined by taking the vector sum of forces due to the electric and magnetic field.

An electron that is moving through a uniform magnetic field has velocity v→=(40km/s)+(35km/s)when it experiences a force F→=−(4.2 f±·)+(4.8 f±·)due to the magnetic field. If Bx=0, calculate the magnetic field B.

Figure shows a wire ring of radiusa=1.8cmthat is perpendicular to the general direction of a radially symmetric, diverging magnetic field. The magnetic field at the ring is everywhere of the same magnitude B=3.4mT, and its direction at the ring everywhere makes an angle θ=20°with a normal to the plane of the ring. The twisted lead wires have no effect on the problem. Find the magnitude of the force the field exerts on the ring if the ring carries a current i=4.6mA.

In Figure, a metal wire of mass m = 24.1 mg can slide with negligible friction on two horizontal parallel rails separated by distance d = 2.56 cm. The track lies in a vertical uniform magnetic field of magnitude 56.3 mT. At time t = 0, device Gis connected to the rails, producing a constant current i = 9.13 mA in the wire and rails (even as the wire moves). Att = 61.1 ms, (a) what is the wire’s speed? (b) What is the wire’s direction of motion (left or right)?

Figure 28-52 gives the orientation energy Uof a magnetic dipole in an external magnetic field B→, as a function of angle ϕ between the directions B→, of and the dipole moment. The vertical axis scale is set by Us=2.0×10-4J. The dipole can be rotated about an axle with negligible friction in order that to change ϕ. Counterclockwise rotation from ϕ=0yields positive values of ϕ, and clockwise rotations yield negative values. The dipole is to be released at angle ϕ=0with a rotational kinetic energy of 6.7×10-4J, so that it rotates counterclockwise. To what maximum value of ϕwill it rotate? (What valueis the turning point in the potential well of Fig 28-52?)

An electron is accelerated from rest by a potential difference of 350 V. It then enters a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 200 mT with its velocity perpendicular to the field.
