Chapter 24, Problem 62MSPP

Next, a particle with the same mass and velocity as the particle in Figure P24.59 enters the velocity selector. This particle has a charge of 2q—twice the charge of the particle in Figure P24.59. In this case, we can say that

A. The force of the electric field on the particle is greater than the force of the magnetic field.

B. The force of the magnetic field on the particle is greater than the force of the electric field.

C. The forces of the electric and magnetic fields on the particle are still equal.
