Figure 1(a): without magnetic field
Figure 1(b): with magnetic field
After detecting magnetic field, Betermal of 2.55 mT on the slice, the electrons collect at
the top edge of the slice and the bottom edge becomes positively charged as shown in
Figure 1(b).
(a) Explain why the electrons collect at the top of the edge of the slice.
(b) Determine the magnitude of the maximum magnetic force that could be exerted on
the electron if the electron moves through the field with a speed of 5.5 x 10° m s-1.
(c) What is the magnitude of the maximum acceleration of the electron?
