At time t1, an electron is sent along the positive direction of an x-axis, through both an electric fieldand a magnetic fieldB→, withE→directed parallel to the y-axis. Figure 28-33 gives the ycomponent Fnet, yof the net force on the electron due to the two fields, as a function of theelectron’s speed vat time t1.The scale of the velocity axis is set byvx=100.0 m/s. The xand zcomponents of the net force are zero at t1. AssumingBx=0, find

Step by step solution

01

Step 1: Given

When,v=0,F=−2×10-19N

02

Determining the concept

The direction of the magnetic forceisperpendicular to the plane formed byv¯andB¯as determined by the right-hand rule.

Right Hand Rule states that if we arrange our thumb, forefinger, and middle finger of the right-hand perpendicular to each other, then the thumb points towards the direction of the motion of the conductor relative to the magnetic field, and the forefinger points towards the direction of the magnetic field and the middle finger points towards the direction of the induced current.

Formulae are as follows:

role="math" localid="1663013317461" E=Fq=q(V⇶Ä×B⇶Ä)

Where F is a magnetic force, v is velocity, E is the electric field, B is the magnetic field, and q is the charge of the particle.

(a) Determining the magnitude  

To find the magnitude of E:

Here,

F=qEE=Fq=−2×10−19 N−1.6×10−19 C=1.25 N/C

Hence, the magnitude of E is1.25 N/C

04

(b) Determining the B→ in-unit vector notation

To find a magnetic field(B⇶Ä):

B=Ev=1.25 N/C50 m/s=0.025 T

To find the direction ofrole="math" localid="1663013448881" B⇶Ä,

F⇶Ä=q(V⇶Ä×B⇶Ä)

The net force is directed indirection and velocity in+xdirection, so by applying the right-hand rule,B⇶Ämust be directed in+zdirection.

Hence,

role="math" localid="1663013638135" B⇶Ä=0.025TK∧

Hence, the magnetic field isB⇶Ä=0.025TK∧.

Therefore, the magnitude of the electric field and magnetic field can be determined by using the respective formulae. The direction of the magnetic field can be found by using the right-hand rule.

In a Hall-effect experiment, a current of 3.0Asent lengthwise through a conductor1.0cmwide,4.0cm long, and10μ³¾ thick produces a transverse (across the width) Hall potential difference of10μ³Õ when a magnetic field of1.5Tis passed perpendicularly through the thickness of the conductor. From these data, find (a) the drift velocity of the charge carriers and (b) the number density of charge carriers. (c) Show on a diagram the polarity of the Hall potential difference with assumed current and magnetic field directions, assuming also that the charge carriers are electrons.

A circular wire loop of radius15.0cmcarries a current of 2.60 A. It is placed so that the normal to its plane makes an angle of 41.0° with a uniform magnetic field of magnitude 12.0 T. (a) Calculate the magnitude of the magnetic dipole moment of the loop. (b) What is the magnitude of the torque acting on the loop?

The magnetic dipole moment of Earth has magnitude8.00×1022J/T . Assume that this is produced by charges flowing in Earth’s molten outer core. If the radius of their circular path is 3500 km, calculate the current they produce.

Estimate the total path length traveled by a deuteron in a cyclotron of radius 53cm and operating frequency12MHz during the (entire) acceleration process. Assume that the accelerating potential between the Dees is80kV.

Figure 28-25 shows the path of a particle through six regions of uniform magnetic field, where the path is either a half-circle or a quarter-circle. Upon leaving the last region, the particle travels between two charged, parallel plates and is deflected toward the plate of higher potential. What is the direction of the magnetic field in each of the six regions?
