Why is the following situation impossible? Figure P28.46 shows an experimental technique for altering the direction of travel for a charged particle. A particle of charge q = 1.00 C and mass m = 2.00 1015 kg enters the bottom of the region of uniform magnetic field at speed = 2.00 105 m/s, with a velocity vector perpendicular to the field lines. The magnetic force on the particle causes its direction of travel to change so that it leaves the region of the magnetic field at the top traveling at an angle from its original direction. The magnetic field has magnitude B = 0.400 T and is directed out of the page. The length h of the magnetic field region is 0.110 m. An experimenter performs the technique and measures the angle at which the particles exit the top of the field. She finds that the angles of deviation are exactly as predicted. Figure P28.46

A singly charged ion of mass m is accelerated from rest by a potential difference V. It is then deflected by a uniform magnetic field (perpendicular to the ions velocity) into a semicircle of radius R. Now a doubly charged ion of mass m' is accelerated through the same potential difference and dellected by the same magnetic field into a semicircle of radius R' = 2R. What is the ratio of the masses of the ions?
A proton (charge +e, mass mp), a deuteron (charge +e, mass 2mp), and an alpha particle (charge +2e, mass 4mp) are accelerated from rest through a common potential difference V. Each of the particles enters a uniform magnetic field B, with its velocity in a direction perpendicular to B. The proton moves in a circular path of radius p. In terms of p, determine (a) the radius rd of the circular orbit for the deuteron and (b) the radius r for the alpha particle.
Two long, straight, parallel wires carry currents that are directed perpendicular to the page as shown in Figure P30.9.
