Question

A singularly-charged ion (i.e. a neutral atom which has gained one electron) with kinetic energy of 7x10−15

J follows a circular path of radius 0.6m when placed in a magnetic field of 0.5T.

 

(Note that the charge of an electron is e = 1.6 x 10−19

C.)

 

a)

Using the fact that the ion is going in a circular motion in a magnetic field, what is the ion’s momentum (in kg.m/s)?

b)

What is the ion’s speed (in m/s)?

c)

What is the ion’s mass (in kg)?

d)

An electric field is added to the experiment and adjusted so that the ion passes through without any deflection. What is the magnitude of this electric field (in T)?

A singularly-charged ion (i.e. a neutral atom which has gained one electron) with kinetic energy of 7x10-15 J follows a circular path of radius
0.6m when placed in a magnetic field of 0.5T.
