A particle with charge 2.0 C moves through a uniform magnetic field. At one instant the velocity of the particle is (2.0i^+4.0j^+6.0k^)m/sand the magnetic force on the particle is (4.0i^-20j^+12k^)NThe xand ycomponents of the magnetic field are equal. What is B→?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The magnetic field is,B⃗=(-3.0i^-3.0j^-4.0k^)T

Step by step solution

01

Step 1: Identification of the given data

  1. The charge on the particle is,q=2.0C.
  2. The velocity of the particle is,v⃗=(2.0i^+4.0j^+6.0k^)m/s
  3. The force acting on the particle is,(FB)⃗=(4.0i^-20j^+12k^)N.
02

Understanding the concept

By using the formula for magnetic force acting on a moving charged particle, we can find the magnetic field B.

Formula:

Magnetic force,(FB)⃗=qv⃗×B⃗

03

Calculate B→

To findthemagnetic field, we usetheformula for magnetic force in terms of velocity and magnetic field.

Let the magnetic field vector be B⃗=(Bxi^+Byj^+Bzk^)T

As it is given that x and y components of magnetic field are same, Bx=By

B⃗=(Bxi^+Byj^+Bzk^)T

We have

(FB)⃗=qv⃗×B⃗

Therefore, we can write

role="math" localid="1662876658877" 4.0i^-20j^+12k^=2×ijk246BxBxBz

By solving the matrix,

124.0i^-20j^+12k^=i4Bz-6Bx-j(2Bz-6Bx)+k(2Bx-4Bx)2.0i^-10j^+6k^=i4Bz-6Bx-j(2Bz-6Bx)-k(2Bx)

Comparing both sides, we get

2=4Bz-6Bx …(1)

10=2Bz-6Bx

6=-2Bx …(2)

From equation 2,Bx=-3

Using in equation 1,

role="math" localid="1662877154991" 2=4Bz-6×-3Bz=164Bz=-4

Hence x,y,z components ofthemagnetic field will be
Bx=-3,By=-3,Bz=-4

B⃗=(-3.0i^-3.0j^-4.0k^)T
