Chapter 22, Problem 8CQ

High-velocity charged particles can damage biological cells and are a component of radiation exposure in a variety of locations ranging from research facilities to natural background. Describe how you could use a magnetic field to shield yourself.

5) A beta particle emitted by radioactive C-14 passes through a uniform magnetic field with magnitude 1.60 T. The beta particle is moving up along the screen with a speed equal to 86.3% of the speed of light c, and the uniform field points to the right. a) In what direction will the beta particle be deflected? Explain briefly how you got your b) answer. s What will be the magnitude of the magnetic force (in N) acting on the beta particle? Show your work. Without doing another calculation, what magnitude of magnetic force would an alpha particle, moving with the same speed as the beta particle, experience in this magnetic field? Explain your answer briefly.
4. A 150-V battery is connected across two parallel metal plates of area 28.5 cm? and separation 8.20 mm. A beam of alpha particles (charge +2e, mass 6.64 x 1027 kg) is accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 1.75 kV and enters the region between the plates perpendicular to the electric field. What magnitude and direction of magnetic field are needed so that the alpha particles emerge undeflected from between the plates?
An alpha particle (m = 6.68 x 1027 kg, q = +2 e.c.) is fired through a velocity selector that is created by an electric field of 4.5 x 105 N/C and a magnetic field of 0.90 T. It then enters a second magnetic field of 1.5 T. a)  Explain how a velocity selector works and determine the speed which the alpha particle must have been moving at.  b)  After half a revolution in the second magnetic field, the alpha particle exits the field. How far from its point of entry does it leave?
