Students have asked these similar questions
Auroras e are produced when charged particles from the sun (a.k.a. solar wind 2 ) directed toward
the Earth are deflected toward the poles. At the poles, the magnetic field is stronger, so it tightens
the radius of curvature of the particle's trajectory such that it ionizes the air.
Suppose an alpha particle (mass of 6.64 x 10-27 kg, charge of +2e) with a kinetic energy of 5.2 kev
becomes trapped by the Earth's magnetic field. Determine the radius of curvature of the particle's
trajectory where the Earth's magnetic field is 37 µT and the velocity of the particle makes a 74° with
the magnetic field.
Give your answer in units of m.
A beryllium-9 ion has a positive charge that is double the charge of a proton, and a mass of 1.50 ✕ 10−26 kg. At a particular instant, it is moving with a speed of 5.10 ✕ 106 m/s through a magnetic field. At this instant, its velocity makes an angle of 61° with the direction of the magnetic field at the ion's location. The magnitude of the field is 0.220 T.
a) What is the magnitude of the magnetic force (in N) on the ion?
b) What is the magnitude of the ion's acceleration (in m/s2) at this instant?
A charged particle moves through a velocity selector at constant velocity. In the selector, E = 1.0×104 N/C and B = 0.250 T. When the electric field is turned off, the charged particle travels in a circular path of radius 3.33 mm. Determine the charge-to-mass ratio of the particle.
