To Choose: The correct option.

Answer to Problem 1P
Correct choice is (b)
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
Magnetic force on a moving charged particle moving through a magnetic field region is given as
Clearly, the direction of deflection of the charged particle is given by the direction of the cross-product of velocity of the charged particle and magnetic field vector.
Direction of deflection of the electron is same as the direction of the magnetic force on it. For a positive charge, the direction of deflection is same as you get for the magnetic force using right hand rule but for a negative charge, the direction of deflection is opposite to the direction of magnetic forceyou will get using right hand rule.
Conclusion:
Hence, correct choice of path is (b)

- An object is placed 24.1 cm to the left of a diverging lens (f = -6.51 cm). A concave mirror (f= 14.8 cm) is placed 30.2 cm to the right of the lens to form an image of the first image formed by the lens. Find the final image distance, measured relative to the mirror. (b) Is the final image real or virtual? (c) Is the final image upright or inverted with respect to the original object?arrow_forwardConcept Simulation 26.4 provides the option of exploring the ray diagram that applies to this problem.
