Question: A proton moves through a uniform magnetic field given byB→=(10i^+20j^+30k^)mT. At time t1, the proton has a velocity given v→=vxi^+vyj^+(2.00km/s)k^and the magnetic force on the proton is FB→=(4.0×10-17N)i^+(2.0×10-17N)j^.At that instant, (a) What is the value of vx? (b)What is the value ofvy?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The value ofvx is3.5×103m/s.
  2. The value ofvyis 7.0×103m/s.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1: Given

B→=(10i^+20j^+30k^)mT

v→=vxi^+vyj^+(2.00km/s)k^

FB→=(4.0×10-17N)i^+(2.0×10-17N)j^

02

Determining the concept

Findthe values of vxand vyfor the proton using the formula for magnetic force in terms of charge, magnetic field strength, and velocity of the proton.

Formulae are as follow:

FB→=ev→×B→

Where, FB is magnetic force, v is velocity, m is mass, K.E. is kinetic energy, B is magnetic field, e is charge of particle.

(a) Determining the value of vx

The magnetic force experienced bytheproton is,

FB→=ev→×B→

role="math" localid="1663230978636" (4.0×10-17)i^+(2.0×10-17)j^=1.6×10-19vxi^+vyj^+(2.00km/s)k^×(10i^+20j^+30k^v→×B→=i^j^k^vxvy2.010-2030

v→×B→=30vy+40i^-30vx-20j^+-20vx-10vyk^

Hence,

role="math" localid="1663231379655" (4.0×10-17)i^+(2.0×10-17)j^=1.6×10-1930vy+40i^-30vx-20j^+-20vx-10vyk^(4.0×10-17)i^+(2.0×10-17)j^1.6×10-19=30vy+40i^-30vx-20j^+-20vx-10vyk^(2.5×102)i^+(1.25×102)j^=30vy+40i^-30vx-20j^+-20vx-10vyk^

Thus, -30vx+20=1.25×102

Hence, vxis-3.5×103m/s
04

(b) Determining the value of vy 

From part a) ,

-20vx-10vy=0vy=-2vx

Hence,

Vy=-2-3.5x103m/s=7.0×103m/s

Hence, the value of vyis 7.0×103m/s.

Therefore, magnetic force depends on charge, velocity of the particle, and applied magnetic field.

A mass spectrometer (Figure) is used to separate uranium ions of mass3.92×10−25kg and charge3.20×10−19C from related species. The ions are accelerated through a potential difference of 100 kV and then pass into a uniform magnetic field, where they are bent in a path of radius 1.00 m. After traveling through 180° and passing through a slit of width 1.00 mm and height 1.00 cm, they are collected in a cup.
