#6 Magnetic field strength in a solenoid A solenoid has a radius of 0.0150 meters, a length of 0.580 meters, and a total of 10,000 evenly spaced wire turns along its length. If the current in the solenoid wire is 2.50 A, what is the magnetic field strength in the interior of the solenoid? Assume one is close to the center where the idealized formula B = µoin relation is appropriate. Recall that n = N/L is the number of turns per unit length.

Unreasonable results A charged particle having mass 6.641027kg (that of a helium atom) moving at 8.70105m/s perpendicular to a 1.50-T magnetic field travels in a circular path of radius 16.0 mm.

A particle’s path is bent when it passes through a region of non-zero magnetic field although its speed remains unchanged. This is very useful for “beam steering’’ in particle accelerators. Consider a proton of speed 4106m/s entering a region of uniform magnetic field 0.2 T over a 5-cm-wide region. Magnetic field is perpendicular to the velocity of the particle. By how much angle will the path of the proton be bent? (Hint: the particle comes out tangent to a circle.
Explain why the magnetic field would not be unique (that is, not have a single value) at a point in space where magnetic field lines might cross. (Consider the direction of the field at such a point.)
The picture tube in an old black-and-white television uses magnetic deflection coils rather than electric deflection plates. Suppose an electron beam is accelerated through a 50.0-kV potential difference and then through a region of uniform magnetic field 1.00 cm wide. The screen is located 10.0 cm from the center of the coils and is 50.0 cm wide. When the field is turned off, the electron beam hits the center of the screen. Ignoring relativistic corrections, what field magnitude is necessary to deflect the beam to the side of the screen?
An electron in a TV CRT moves with a speed at 6.00107m/s, in a direction perpendicular to the Earth’s field, which has a strength of 5.00105T. (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 correction.)
A charged particle is moving perpendicular to a magnetic field in a circle with a radius r. (i) An identical particle enters the field, with v perpendicular to B, but with a higher speed than the first particle. Compared with the radius of the circle for the first particle, is the radius of the circular path for the second particle (a) smaller, (b) larger, or (c) equal in size? (ii) The magnitude of the magnetic field is increased. From the same choices, compare the radius of the new circular path of the first particle with the radius of its initial path.
