Answer:
Explanation:
A proton of charge
q=+1.609×10^-19C
Orbit a radius of 12cm
r=0.12m
Magnetic Field of 0.31T
Angle between velocity and field is 90°
a. Because the magnetic force F supplies the centripetal force Fc.
The magnitude of the magnetic force F on a charge q moving at a speed v in a magnetic field of strength B is given by
F = qvB sin θ
And the centripetal force is given as
Fc=mv²/r
Where m is mass of proton
m=1.673×10^-27kg
Then, F=Fc
qvB sin θ=mv²/r
qBSin90=mv/r
rqB=mv
Then, v=rqB/m
v=0.12×1.609×10^-19×0.31/1.673×10^-23
v=3577692.78m/s
v=3.58×10^6m/s
b. Since,
F=qVBSin90
F=1.609×10^-19×3.58×10^6×0.31
F=1.785×10^-13 N.
