Question

(a) What is the speed of the ?-particle?

_________m/s

(b) What is the magnitude of the magnetic force on it?

_________N

(c) What is the radius of its circular path?

_________m

2)

magnitude____________N

direction____________ north/south/east/west

3) A 45-m length of wire is stretched horizontally between two vertical posts. The wire carries a current of 68 A and experiences a magnetic force of 0.15 N. Find the magnitude of the earth's magnetic field at the location of the wire, assuming the field makes an angle of 69.5

If the speed isn't relativistic (and it isn't),
kinetic energy gained = 1/2 mv^2
=
potential energy lost = qV

Solve for the speed:
v = sqrt (2qV/m)

They give you the charge (q, in units of e). Look up the fundamental charge (e). They give you the potential difference(V) and mass(m).
