- An infinitely long line of charge has linear charge density 4.00×10−12 C/m . A proton (mass 1.67×10−−27 kg, charge +1.60×10−19 C) is 18.0 cm from the line and moving directly toward the line at 4.10×103 m/s . How close does the proton get to the line of charge?arrow_forwardat a certain location the horizontal component of the earth’s magnetic field is 2.5 x 10^-5 T due north A proton moves eastward with just the right speed so the magnetic force on it balances its weight. Find the speed of the proton.arrow_forwardExample In Canada, the Earth has B = 0.5 mT, pointing north, 70.0° below the horizontal. a) Find the magnetic force on an oxygen ion (O) moving due east at 250 m/s b) Compare the |FB| to |FE| due to Earth's fair- weather electric field (150 V/m downward).arrow_forward
- Three charged particles are located at the corners of an equilateral triangle as shown in the figure below (let q = 2.20 µC, and L = 0.810 m). Calculate the total electric force on the 7.00-µC charge. What is the magnitude , what is the direction?arrow_forward(a) Calculate the number of electrons in a small, electrically neutral silver pin that has a mass of 9.0 g. Silver has 47 electrons per atom, and its molar mass is 107.87 g/mol. (b) Imagine adding electrons to the pin until the negative charge has the very large value 2.00 mC. How many electrons are added for every 109 electrons already present?arrow_forward(a) Calculate the number of electrons in a small, electrically neutral silver pin that has a mass of 13.0 g. Silver has 47 electrons per atom, and its molar mass is 107.87 g/mol.arrow_forward
- 8 Two moving charged particles exert forces on each other because each creates a magnetic field that acts on the other. These two "Lorentz" forces are proportional to vix (2 xr) and 2 x (vi x-r), where is the vector between the particle positions. Show that these two forces are equal and opposite in accordance with Newton's third law if and only if rx (vi × 2) = 0.arrow_forward6 The force = +3 + 2k acts at the point (1, 1, 1). Find the torque of the force about (a) (b) the point (2, -1, 5). Careful about the direction of ŕ between the two points. the line = 21-+5k+ (i-+2k)t. Note that the line goes through the point (2, -1, 5).arrow_forward5 Find the total work done by forces A and B if the object undergoes the displacement C. Hint: Can you add the two forces first?arrow_forward

True False by the force Farrow_forwardA student measuring the wavelength produced by a vapour lamp directed the lightthrough two slits with a separation of 0.20 mm. An interference pattern was created on the screen,3.00 m away. The student found that the distance between the first and the eighth consecutive darklines was 8.0 cm. Draw a quick picture of the setup. What was the wavelength of the light emittedby the vapour lamp?arrow_forwardA ball is tied to one end of a string. The other end of the string is fixed. The ball is set in motion around a vertical circle without friction. At the top of the circle, the ball has a speed of ; = √√ Rg, as shown in the figure.
