Question

A particle with a mass of 1.8 g and a charge of .01 μC has a velocity 20000*j m/s at time t. What is its acceleration (magnitude and direction) at that instant if it is in a uniform magnetic field B = ( i + 2j ) T?

a) 0.11 m/s2 along negative z.        

b) 0.11 m/s2 along positive z.     

c) 0.11 m/s2 along positive x.

Expert Solution
Step 1

mass of particle (m) = 1.8 g = 0.0018 kg charge on particle (q)= 0.01μC velocity of particle (v) = 20000 j^  msmagnetic field (B) = i^ +2j^ T
