An electron moves in the magnetic field with a speed of in the directions shown in FIGURE EX29.27. For each, what is magnetic force on the electron? Give your answers in component form.


a. Derive an expression for the magnetic field strength at distance d from the center of a straight wire of finite length l that carries current I.
b. Determine the field strength at the center of a current carrying square loop having sides of length 2R.
c. Compare your answer to part b to the field at the center of a circular loop of diameter 2R. Do so by computing the ratio .
What is the initial direction of deflection for the charged particles entering the magnetic fields shown in FIGURE
