Answer to Problem 1OQ

Option (c) The particle moves parallel to the magnetic field and option (e) the particle is at rest.

Explanation of Solution

A uniform magnetic field cannot exert a magnetic force only when the particle is not charged and moving at an angle of 0°. Hence, the circumstances in which a spatially uniform magnetic field cannot exert a magnetic force on a particle are when the particle moves parallel to the magnetic field or the particle is at rest.

Conclusion:

As a spatially uniform magnetic field cannot exert a magnetic force on the particle moving parallel to the magnetic field. Therefore, option (c) is correct.

As a spatially uniform magnetic field cannot exert a magnetic force on the particle which is at rest.  Therefore, option (e) is correct.

As a spatially uniform magnetic field can exert a magnetic force on the particle which is charged. Therefore, option (a) is incorrect.

As a spatially uniform magnetic field can exert a magnetic force on the particle which moves perpendicular to the magnetic field. Therefore, option (b) is incorrect.

A spatially uniform magnetic field can exert a magnetic force on the particle when the magnitude of the magnetic field changes. Therefore, option (d) is incorrect.

Three slits, each separated from its neighbor by d = 0.06 mm, are illuminated by a coherent light source of wavelength 550 nm. The slits are extremely narrow. A screen is located L = 2.5 m from the slits. The intensity on the centerline is 0.05 W. Consider a location on the screen x = 1.72 cm from the centerline. a) Draw the phasors, according to the phasor model for the addition of harmonic waves, appropriate for this location. b) From the phasor diagram, calculate the intensity of light at this location.
A Jamin interferometer is a device for measuring or for comparing the indices of refraction of gases. A beam of monochromatic light is split into two parts, each of which is directed along the axis of a separate cylindrical tube before being recombined into a single beam that is viewed through a telescope. Suppose we are given the following, • Length of each tube is L = 0.4 m. • λ= 598 nm. Both tubes are initially evacuated, and constructive interference is observed in the center of the field of view. As air is slowly let into one of the tubes, the central field of view changes dark and back to bright a total of 198 times. (a) What is the index of refraction for air? (b) If the fringes can be counted to ±0.25 fringe, where one fringe is equivalent to one complete cycle of intensity variation at the center of the field of view, to what accuracy can the index of refraction of air be determined by this experiment?
