The light beam from a search light may have an electric-field magnitude of 1000 V/m, corresponding to a potential difference of 1500 V between the head and feet of a 1.5-m-tall person on whom the light shines. Does this cause the person to feel a strong electric shock? Why or why not?
A very small source of light that radiates uniformly in all directions produces an electric field
amplitude of 8.19 V/m at a point 9.05 m from the source. What is the average power output from
the source? (Use c = 2.9979 x 108 m/s)
An electron travels with = 5.50 x 106 m/s

E = (2.30 x 105 -2.30 x 1053) V/m and
B = -0.100 k T.

- A cyclotron is used to produce a beam of high-energy deuterons that then collide with a target to produce radioactive isotopes for a medical procedure. Deuterons are nuclei of deuterium, an isotope of hydrogen, consisting of one neutron and one proton, with total mass 3.34 x 10-27 kg. The deuterons exit the cyclotron with a kinetic energy of 5.00 MeV.a. What is the speed of the deuterons when they exit?b. If the magnetic field inside the cyclotron is 1.25 T, what is the diameter of the deuterons’ largest orbit, just before they exit?c. If the beam current is 400 μA, how many deuterons strike the target each second?arrow_forwardCold Atoms: When atoms are cooled to very low temperatures, they move very slowly. At these low speeds, atoms can fall under their own weight. A team of scientists is studying cold ions. Each ion has a mass of 1.91 x 10-25 kg, a charge of 1.6 x 10-19 C, and an average velocity of 15.0 mm/s due north. The scientists are trying to focus a beam of these atoms on a detector 1.000 m away. However, gravity is deflecting the beam. One scientist suggests using a magnetic field to counteract the force of gravity. (a) What minimum magnetic field strength could counteract the force of gravity for these particles? (b) What direction should the field be oriented? Either describe the direction or draw a picture that shows the velocity of the particles, the direction of gravity, and the direction of the magnetic field. Ignore the earth's magnetic field. It has eliminated by magnetic shielding around the experimental setup.arrow_forwardSee attached imagearrow_forward
