Question

One component of a magnetic field has a magnitude of 0.0431 T and points along the +x axis, while the other component has a magnitude of 0.0798 T and points along the -y axis. A particle carrying a charge of +1.81

One component of a magnetic field has a magnitude of 0.0431 T and points along the +x axis, while the other component has a magnitude of 0.0798 T and points along the -y axis. A particle carrying a charge of +1.81 times 10-5 C is moving along the +z axis at a speed of 4.44 times 103 m/s. Find the magnitude of the net magnetic force that acts on the particle. etermine the angle that the net force makes with respect to the +x axis. Number ? & Units? Number ? & Units?

Explanation / Answer

a)
Fy = q*V*Bx = 3.46*10^-3 N

Fx = q*V*By = 6.41*10^-3 N

Fnet = sqrt(Fx^2+Fy^2) = 7.284*10^-3 N

b) theta = tan^-1(Fy/Fx) = 28.36 degrees
