Next, a particle with the same mass and velocity as the particle in Figure P24.59 enters the velocity selector. This particle has a charge of 2q—twice the charge of the particle in Figure P24.59. In this case, we can say that

Figure P22.2.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. What positive charge is on the ion? (b) What is the radio of this charge to the charge of an electron? (c) Discuss why the radio found in (b) should be an integer.arrow_forwardA very large parallel-plate capacitor has uniform charge per unit area + on the upper plate and on the lower plate. The plates are horizontal, and both move horizontally with speed v to the right. (a) What is the magnetic field between the plates? (b) What is the magnetic field just above or just below the plates? (c) What are the magnitude and direction of the magnetic force per unit area on the upper plate? (d) At what extrapolated speed v will the magnetic force on a plate balance the electric force on the plate? Suggestion: Use Amperes law and choose a path that closes between the plates of the capacitor.arrow_forward
- An electron in a TV CRT moves with a speed of 6.0107 m/s, in a direction perpendicular to Earth's field, which has a strength of 5.0105 T. (a) What strength electric field must be applied perpendicular to the Earth’s field to make the election moves in a straight line? (b) If this is done between plates separated by 1.00 cm, what is the voltage applied? (Note that TVs are usually surrounded by a ferromagnetic material to shield against external magnetic fields and avoid the need for such a collection,)arrow_forwardReview A proton is accelerated from rest through a 5.00-V potential difference. a.

- 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 P28.46arrow_forwardA uniform magnetic field of magnitude is directed parallel to the z-axis. A proton enters the field with a velocity v=(4j+3k)106m/s and travels in a helical path with a radius of 5.0 cm. (a) What is the value of B? (b) What is the time required for one trip around the helix? (c) Where is the proton 5.0107s after entering the field?arrow_forwardOne common type of cosmic ray is a proton traveling at close to the speed of light. If the proton is traveling downward, as shown in Figure P30.14, at a speed of 1.00 107 m/s, what are the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field at point B?arrow_forward
- One long wire carries current 30.0 A to the left along the x axis. A second long wire carries current 50.0 A to the right along the line (y = 0.280 m, z = 0). (a) Where in the plane of the two wires is the total magnetic field equal to zero? (b) A particle with a charge of 2.00 C is moving with a velocity of 150iMm/s along the line (y = 0.100 m, z = 0). Calculate the vector magnetic force acting on the particle. (c) What If? A uniform electric field is applied to allow this particle to pass through this region undetected. Calculate the required vector electric field.arrow_forwardDetermine the initial direction of the deflection of charged particles as they enter the magnetic fields shown in Figure P29.2.arrow_forwardThe Hall effect finds important application in the electronics industry. It is used to find the sign and density of the carriers of electric current in semiconductor chips. The arrangement is shown in Figure P22.66. A semiconducting block of thickness t and width d carries a current I in the x direction. A uniform magnetic field B is applied in the y direction. If the charge carriers are positive, the magnetic force deflects them in the z direction. Positive charge accumulates on the top surface of the sample and negative charge on the bottom surface, creating a downward electric field. In equilibrium, the downward electric force on the charge carriers balances the upward magnetic force and the carriers move through the sample without deflection. The Hall voltage ΔVH = Vc − Va between the top and bottom surfaces is measured, and the density of the charge carriers can be calculated from it. (a) Demonstrate that if the charge carriers are negative the Hall voltage will be negative. Hence, the Hall effect reveals the sign of the charge carriers, so the sample can be classified as p-type (with positive majority charge carriers) or n-type (with negative). (b) Determine the number of charge carriers per unit volume n in terms of I, t, B, ΔVH, and the magnitude q of the carrier charge. Figure P22.66arrow_forward
