In my laboratory, if I notice my vacuum system has a leak to atmosphere, I use a mass spectrometer to find the leak. I connect my vacuum system to the mass spectrometer, and spray my systems walls with helium. If the mass spectrometer reads helium when I spray a particular wall of my system, I can pinpoint where the leak is. Suppose an ionized helium atom has a mass of 6.6 x 10^-27 kg and a speed of 4.4 x 10 ^5 m/s as it moves into the mass spectrometer. It moves perpendicular to a .75 T magnetic field on a circular path that has a .012-m radius. Determine whether the charge of the ionized atom is +e or +2e.
Some satellites use nuclear power. (a) If such a satellite emits a 2.35 W flux of ? rays having an average energy of 0.440 MeV, how many are emitted per second? (? rays/s) (b) These ? rays affect other satellites. How far away (in km) must another satellite be to only receive one ? ray per second per square meter?
The Hall affect is used to measure the carrier density of a thin sheet of electrons. When a current of 80.0 µA flows through the length of the electron sheet, which is 1.2-mm long, 0.27- mm wide and 12-nm thick, a magnetic field perpendicular to the sheet produces a potential difference of 0.53 mV across the width of the sheet. If the carrier density in the electron sheet is 6.74 x 1025 m-3, what is the magnitude of the magnetic field?
In a Hall-effect experiment, a current of 2.3 A sent lengthwise through a conductor 1.2 cm wide, 3.9 cm long, and 10 μm thick produces a transverse (across the width) Hall potential difference of 8.4 µV when a magnetic field of 1.3 T is passed perpendicularly through the thickness of the conductor. From these data, find (a) the drift speed of the charge carriers and (b) the number density of charge carriers. (a) Number M. i (b) Number i Units Units
