Unreasonable Results A charged particle having mass 6.641027kg (that of a helium atom) moving at 8.70105m/s perpendicular to a 1.50T magnetic field travels in a circular path of radius 16.0 mm. (a) What is the charge of the particle? (b) What is unreasonable about this result? (c) Which assumptions are responsible?
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.
A proton of speed v=6105m/s enters a region of uniform magnetic field of B = 0.5 T at an angle of q = 30° to the magnetic field. In the region of magnetic field proton describes a helical path with radius R and pitch p (distance between loops.) Find R and p.
Two long, straight wires cross each other at a right angle, and each carries the same current I (Fig. OQ30.5). Which of the following statements is true regarding the total magnetic field due to the two wires at the various points in the Figure? More than one statement may be correct. (a) The field is strongest at points B and D. (b) The field is strongest at points A and C. (c) The field is out of the page at point B and into the page at point D. (d) The field is out of the page at point C and out of the page at point D. (e) The field has the same magnitude at all four points.

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.)
A circular copper disk of radius 7.5 on rotates at 2400 rpm around the axis through its center and perpendicular to its face. The disk is in a uniform magnetic field B of strength 1.2 T that is directed along the axis. What is the potential difference between the rim and the axis of the disk?
A uniform horizontal wire with a linear mass density of 0.50 g/m carries a 2.0-A current. It is placed in a constant magnetic field with a strength of 4.0 103 T. The field is horizontal and perpendicular to the wire. As the wire moves upward starting from rest, (a) what is its acceleration and (b) how long does it take to rise 0.50 m? Neglect the magnetic field of Earth.
(a) What is the angle between a wire carrying an 8.00-A current and the 1.20-T field it is in if 50.0 cm of the wire experiences a magnetic force of 2.40 N? (b) What is the force on the wire if it is rotated to make an angle of 90° with the field?
The current through a circular wire loop of radius 10 cm is 5.0 A. (a) Calculate themagnetic dipole moment of the loop.

You are given a certain volume of copper from which you can make copper wire. To insulate the wire, you can have as much enamel as you like. You will use the wire to make a tightly wound solenoid 20 cm long having the greatest possible magnetic field at the center and using a power supply that can deliver a current of 5 A. The solenoid can be wrapped with wire in one or more layers. (a) Should you make the wire long and thin or shorter and thick? Explain. (b) Should you make the radius of the solenoid small or large? Explain.
Assume the magnitude of the magnetic field outside a sphere of radius R is B = B0(R/r)2, where B0 is a constant. (a) Determine the total energy stored in the magnetic field outside the sphere. (b) Evaluate your result from part (a) for B0 = 5.00 105 T and R = 6.00 106 m, values appropriate for the Earths magnetic field.
