- A particle’s path is bent when it passes through a region of non-zero magnetic field although its speed remains unchanged. This is very useful for “beam steering’’ in particle accelerators. Consider a proton of speed 4106m/s entering a region of uniform magnetic field 0.2 T over a 5-cm-wide region. Magnetic field is perpendicular to the velocity of the particle. By how much angle will the path of the proton be bent? (Hint: the particle comes out tangent to a circle.arrow_forwardConstruct Your Own Problem Consider a mass separator that applies a magnetic field perpendicular to the velocity of ions and separates the ions based on the radius of curvature of their paths in the field. Construct a problem in which you calculate the magnetic field strength needed to separate two ions that differ in mass, but not charge, and have the same initial velocity. Among the things to consider are the types of ions, the velocities they can be given before entering the magnetic field, and a reasonable value for the radius of curvature of the paths they follow. In addition, calculate the separation distance between the ions at the point where they are detected.arrow_forwardUnreasonable Results (a) Find the charge on a baseball, thrown at 35.0 m/s perpendicular to the Earth’s 5.00105T field, that experiences a 1.00-N magnetic force. (b) What is unreasonable about this result? (c) Which assumption or premise is responsible?arrow_forward
- A cosmic ray electron moves at 7.50106m/s perpendicular to the Earth's magnetic field at an altitude where field strength is 1.00105T. What is the radius of the circular pain the electron follows?arrow_forwardFind the direction of the magnetic field acting on a positively charged particle moving in the various situations shown in Figure P28.3 if the direction of the magnetic force acting on it is as indicated. Figure P28.3arrow_forwardA particle with electric charge is fired into a region of space where the electric field is zero. It moves in a straight line. Can you conclude that the magnetic field in that region is zero? (a) Yes, you can. (b) No; the field might be perpendicular to the particles velocity. (c) No; the field might be parallel to the particles velocity. (d) No; the particle might need to have charge of the opposite sign to have a force exerted on it. (e) No; an observation of an object with electric charge gives no information about a magnetic field.arrow_forward
- (a) Viewers of Star Trek hear of an antimatter drive on the Starship Enterprise. One possibility for such a futuristic energy source is to store antimatter charged particles in a vacuum chamber, circulating in a magnetic field, and then extract them as needed. Antimatter annihilates with normal matter, producing pure energy. What strength magnetic field is needed to hold antiprotons, moving at 5.00107m/s in a circular path 2.00 m in radius? Antiprotons have the same mass as protons but the opposite (negative) charge. (b) Is this field strength obtainable with today’s technology or is it a futuristic possibility?arrow_forwardA charged particle is traveling through a uniform magnetic field. Which of the following statements are true of the magnetic field? There may be more than one correct statement. (a) It exerts a force on the particle parallel to the field. (b) It exerts a force on the particle along the direction of its motion. (c) It increases the kinetic energy of the particle. (d) It exerts a force that is perpendicular to the direction of motion. (e) It does not change the magnitude of the momentum of the particle.arrow_forward(a) An oxygen16 ion with a mass at 2.661026kg travels at 5.00106m/s perpendicular to a 1.20T magnetic field, which makes it move in a circular arc with a 0.231-m radius.
