Chapter 9, Problem 5P

The force on a magnetic moment μz in a nonuniform magnetic field Bz is given by

F z = μ z d B z d z

If a beam of silver atoms travels a horizontal distance of 1 m through such a field and each atom has a speed of 100 m/s, how strong must the field gradient dBz/dz be in order to deflect the beam 1 mm?

In the figure, an electron accelerated from rest through potential difference V1=1.26 kV enters the gap between two parallel plates having separation d = 19.6 mm and potential difference V2= 52.4 V. The lower plate is at the lower potential. Neglect fringing and assume that the electron's velocity vector is perpendicular to the electric field vector between the plates. In unit-vector notation, what uniform magnetic field allows the electron to travel in a straight line in the gap? I need this in units of mT.
