Question

A particle with charge 4.16 x 10^-6 C moves at 5.78 x 10^6 m/s through a magnetic field of strength 2.58 T. The angle between the particle s velocity and the magnetic field direction is 35.1 degrees and the particle undergoes an acceleration of 11.9 m/s^2. What is the particle s mass? 

17.9 kg  

3.00 kg 

6.0 kg 

7.1 kg 

Expert Solution
Step 1: Determine the given variables

In the following problem:

Charge of the particle, q equals 4.16 cross times 10 to the power of negative 6 end exponent space straight C

Speed of the charged particle, v equals 5.78 cross times 10 to the power of 6 space straight m divided by straight s

Magnetic field, B equals 2.58 space straight T

Angle between the particles velocity and the magnetic field, theta equals 35.1 degree

Acceleration, a equals 11.9 space straight m divided by straight s squared
