A velocity selector consists of electric and magnetic fields described by the expressions E = E k and B = B ĵ, with B = 10.0 mT. Find the value of E (in kV/m) such that a 840 eV electron moving in the negative x-direction is undeflected. kV/m (b) What If? For the value of E found in part (a), what would the kinetic energy of a proton have to be (in MeV) for it to move undeflected in the negative x-direction? MeV A cyclotron designed to accelerate protons has a magnetic field of magnitude 0.640 T over a region of radius 1.80 m. (a) What is the cyclotron frequency? rad/s (b) What is the maximum speed acquired by the protons? m/s
An electron with kinetic energy 2.5 keV moving along the positive direction of an x axis enters a region in which a uniform electric field of magnitude 10 kV/m is in the negative direction of the y axis. A uniform magnetic field is to be set up to keep the electron moving along the x axis, and the direction of is to be chosen to minimize the required magnitude of . In unit-vector notation, what should be set up?
Suppose a conducting rod (mass m, resistance R) rests on two frictionless and resistanceless parallel rails a distance l apart in a uniform magnetic field B (⊥ to the rails and to the rod) as in the figure. At t = 0 the rod is at rest and a source of emf is connected to the points a and b. Find a formula for the net electric field in the moving rod as a function of time for the case, when the source puts out a constant current I. Find a formula for the net electric field in the moving rod as a function of time for the case when the source puts out a constant emf E0.
