Chapter 4: Q24E (page 913)

A beam of protons traveling at 1.20 km/s enters a uniform magnetic field, traveling perpendicular to the field. The beam exits the magnetic field, leaving the field in a direction perpendicular to its original direction (Fig. E27.24). The beam travels a distance of 1.18 cm while in the field. What is the magnitude of the magnetic field?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The magnitude of the magnetic field isB=1.67脳10-3T

Step by step solution

01

Radius of curvature for a particle moving in a magnetic field

The radius of curvature for a particle moving in a magnetic field is given by

R=mvqB

02

Determine the magnitude of the magnetic field

The beam travels a distance of 1.8 cm

The particle covered the angle quarter of the circle

Therefore,胃=蟺/2

Therefore, the radius of the path will be

R=s胃=1.18蟺/2=0.751

Therefore, the radius of curvature for a particle moving in a magnetic field is

R=mvqB

Or

B=mvqR

Substitute the given values we get

B=(1.67脳10-27kg)(1200m/s)(1.60脳10-19C)(0.00751m)=1.67脳10-3T

Therefore, the magnitude of the magnitude of the magnetic field isB=1.67脳10-3T

A heart defibrillator is used to enable the heart to start beating if it has stopped. This is done by passing a large current of12Athrough the body at25Vfor a very short time, usually3.0msabout . (a) What power does the defibrillator deliver to the body, and (b) how much energy is transferred ?

Copper has 8.5脳1022free electrons per cubic meter. A 71.0-cm

length of 12-gauge copper wire that is 2.05 mm in diameter carries 4.85 A of

current. (a) How much time does it take for an electron to travel the length

of the wire? (b) Repeat part (a) for 6-gauge copper wire (diameter 4.12 mm)

of the same length that carries the same current. (c) Generally speaking,

how does changing the diameter of a wire that carries a given amount of

current affect the drift velocity of the electrons in the wire?

a power supply that maintains a constant potential difference of 15.0Vacross

its ends, while an ammeter measures the current through it. You observe that

at room temperature (20.0鈭�C)the ammeter reads 18.5Awhile at 92.0鈭�Cit

reads 17.2A. You can ignore any thermal expansion of the rod. Find (a) the

resistivity at and (b) the temperature coefficient of resistivity at for the material of the rod.

Questions: When a thunderstorm is approaching, sailors at sea sometimes observe a phenomenon called 鈥淪t. Elmo鈥檚 fire,鈥� a bluish flickering light at the tips of masts. What causes this? Why does it occur at the tips of masts? Why is the effect most pronounced when the masts are wet? (Hint: Seawater is a good conductor of electricity.)
