It is not possible to see very small objects, such as viruses, using an ordinary light microscope. An electron microscope can view such objects using an electron beam instead of a light beam. Electron microscopy has proved invaluable for investigations of viruses, cell membranes and subcellular structures, bacterial surfaces, visual receptors, chloroplasts, and the contractile properties of muscles. The "lenses" of an electron microscope consist of electric and magnetic fields that control the electron beam. As an example of the manipulation of an electron beam, consider an electron traveling away from the origin along the x axis in the xy plane with initial velocity v, = vi. As it passes through the region x = 0 to x = d, the electron experiences acceleration a = a i + aj, where a and a, are constants. For the case v, = 1.91 x 10 m/s, a = 8.21 x 1014 m/s2, and a,= 1.73 x 1015 m/s?, determine the following at x = d = 0.0100 m. (a) the position of the electron Y = X m (b) the velocity of the electron v, = m/s i + m/s j (c) the speed of the electron |v,l = m/s (d) the direction of travel of the electron (i.e. the angle between its velocity and the x axis)

A cyclotron is a machine that can be used to accelerate charged particles to achieve large kinetic energies. The resulting beams of highly energetic particles then can be used for many medical applications, including Proton Therapy (a more precise form of "radiation" used in the treatment of some cancers). A description of the cyclotron can be found in section 19.3 of the text. If a proton (of mass 1.673x10-27kg) is accelerated to its maximum velocity inside a dee with radius 1.32cm (this is the radius you would use for the "r" term in the centripetal acceleration), and if the magnetic field has a magnitude of 1.84x10-2T, what is the resulting velocity of the proton in units of km/s (kilometer per second)?
Consider the electrostatic force between two particles of equal mass m = 25.6 × 10-26 kg and carrying different charges q1 = 14e and q2 = 28e, where e denotes the magnitude of the charge on an electron.

A disc magnet is used to hold a piece of paper (0.1 mm thick) to the door of a refrigerator. The magnet is 4 cm in diameter and 0.5 cm thick. Its mass is 100 grams. Assuming that the coefficient of friction between the paper and the refrigerator is 0.3, what is the minimum remanent magnetism (in Gauss) that the magnet must have in order to keep the magnet and paper from falling ?
A cyclotron is used to produce a beam of high-energy deuterons that then collide with a target to produce radioactive isotopes for a medical procedure. Deuterons are nuclei of deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen, consisting of one neutron and one proton, with total mass 3.34×10−27kg. The deuterons exit the cyclotron with a kinetic energy of 6.10 MeV . What is the speed of the deuterons when they exit? If the magnetic field inside the cyclotron is 1.25 T, what is the diameter of the deuterons' largest orbit, just before they exit? If the beam current is 380 μA how many deuterons strike the target each second?

The circular particle accelerator at CERN has a radius of about 2.24 km. The accelerator uses strong magnetic fields to steer charged particles in a circle, while electric fields give them more and more energy every time around. Suppose we're steering protons using magnetic fields of magnitude 8.22 T. What would be the magnitude of the momentum, p, of a proton under those conditions? You may assume that the magnetic field involved is perpendicular to the motion of the charges (that's the most efficient configuration).
