A proton moving at speed v = 1.00 x 106 m/s enters a region in space where a magnetic fi eld givenby B = (–0.500 T) z exists. The velocity vector of the proton is at an angle θ = 60.0° with respect tothe positive z-axis. a) Analyze the motion of the proton and describe its trajectory (in qualitativeterms only). b) Calculate the radius, r, of the trajectory projected onto a plane perpendicular to themagnetic fi eld (in the xy-plane). c) Calculate the period, T, and frequency, f, of the motion in thatplane. d) Calculate the pitch of the motion (the distance traveled by the proton in the direction ofthe magnetic fi eld in 1 period).
As shown in the figure below, when a charged particle enters a region of magnetic field traveling in a direction perpendicular to the field, it will travel in a circular path. If the magnitude of
the magnetic field is 0.170 T, the speed of the particle is 12.0 x 10° m/s, the radius of the trajectory of the path is 105.5 cm, and the charge has a magnitude of 3.20 x 1019
