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

To five significant figures, what are the cyclotron frequencies in a magnetic field of the ions , , and ? The atomic masses are shown in the table; the mass of the missing electron is less than u and is not relevant at this level of precision. Although and both have a nominal molecular mass of , they are easily distinguished by virtue of their slightly different cyclotron frequencies. Use the following constants:.

a. An infinitely long sheet of charge of width L lies in the x y plane between x=-L / 2 and x=L / 2. The surface charge density is \eta. Derive an expression for the electric field at height above the centerline of the sheet.
b. Verify that your expression has the expected behavior if and if
c. Draw a graph of field strength E versus z.
A long, straight conducting wire of radius R has a nonuniform current density , where is a constant. The wire carries total current I.
a. Find an expression for in terms of I and R.
b. Find an expression for the magnetic field strength inside the wire at radius r.
c. At the boundary, r = R, does your solution match the known field outside a long, straight current-carrying wire?
The element niobium, which is a metal, is a superconductor (i.e., no electrical resistance) at temperatures below . However, the superconductivity is destroyed if the magnetic field at the surface of the metal reaches or exceeds . What is the maximum current in a straight, diameter superconducting niobium wire?
