You have a 1.0-m-long copper wire. You want to make an N-turn current loop that generates a 1.0 mT magnetic field at the center when the current is 1.0 A. You must use the entire wire. What will be the diameter of your coil?
The magnetic field strength at the north pole of a - diameter, -long Alnico magnet is . To produce the same field with a solenoid of the same size, carrying a current of , how many turns of wire would you need?
A proton in a cyclotron gains of kinetic energy per revolution, where is the potential between the dees. Although the energy gain comes in small pulses, the proton makes so many revolutions that it is reasonable to model the energy as increasing at the constant rate , where is the period of the cyclotron motion. This is power input because it is a rate of increase of energy.
a. Find an expression for , the radius of a proton's orbit in a cyclotron, in terms of . Assume that at .
Hint:Start by finding an expression for the proton's kinetic energy in terms of .
b. A relatively small cyclotron is in diameter, uses a magnetic field, and has a potential difference between the dees. What is the power input to a proton, in ?
c. How long does it take a proton to spiral from the center out to the edge?
shows a mass spectrometer, an analytical instrument used to identify the various molecules in a sample by measuring their charge-to-mass ratio . The sample is ionized, the positive ions are accelerated (starting from rest) through a potential differencelocalid="1648976601527" , and they then enter a region of uniform magnetic field. The field bends the ions into circular trajectories, but after just half a circle they either strike the wall or pass through a small opening to a detector. As the accelerating voltage is slowly increased, different ions reach the detector and are measured. Consider a mass spectrometer with localid="1648976606181" a magnetic field and an localid="1648976610307" spacing between the entrance and exit holes. To five significant figures, what accelerating potential differences localid="1648978768434" are required to detect the ions localid="1648978902862" and localid="1648978898077" ? See Exercise localid="1648978753549" for atomic masses; the mass of the missing electron is less than localid="1648978758219" and is not relevant at this level of precision. Although localid="1648978910549" and localid="1648978778238" both have a nominal molecular mass of localid="1648978782098" , they are easily distinguished by virtue of their slightly different accelerating voltages. Use the following constants:
