Chapter 4: Q4DQ (page 811)

The magnetic force on a moving charged particle is always perpendicular to the magnetic fieldB鈫�. Is the trajectory of a moving charged particle always perpendicular to the magnetic field lines? Explain your reasoning.

Short Answer

Expert verified

No, the trajectory of a moving charged particle always perpendicular to the magnetic field lines.

Step by step solution

01

Magnetic force on a moving charge

The magnetic field of force on a moving charge is perpendicular to the velocity and magnetic field of the charge which is given by the right-hand rule.

02

Step-2: Explanation

The particle will enter the magnetic field with a velocity that has a component parallel to the magnetic field, hence the component will remain unchanged and there will be a motion in the direction of the field. Hence, the trajectory of a moving charged particle will not always be perpendicular to the magnetic field lines.

Question: The circuit shown in Fig. P26.74, called a Wheatstone Bridge, is used to determine the value of an unknown resistor X by comparison with three resistors M, N, and P whose resistances can be varied. For each setting, the resistance of each resistor is precisely known. With switches S1 and S2 closed, these resistors are varied until the current in the galvanometer G is zero; the bridge is then said to be balanced. (a) Show that under this condition the unknown resistance is given by X = MP/N. (This method permits very high precision in comparing resistors.) (b) If galvanometer G shows zero deflection when M = 850.0 鈩�, N = 15.00 鈩�, and P = 33.48 鈩�, what is the unknown resistance X?

If you peel two strips of transparent tape off the same roll and immediately let them hang near each other, they will repel each other. If you then stick the sticky side of one to the shiny side of the other and rip them apart, they will attract each other. Give a plausible explanation, involving transfer of electrons between the strips of tape, for this sequence of events.
