Question

3 particles, labeled X, Y, and Z, are located in a uniform magnetic field. The magnetic field, B, has a strength of 0.270 T and is pointing down towards the bottom of the paper.

Particle X has a charge of 4.00 ?C and is moving to the right (perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field) at a speed of 6.70

3 particles, labeled X, Y, and Z, are located in a uniform magnetic field. The magnetic field, B, has a strength of 0.270 T and is pointing down towards the bottom of the paper. Particle X has a charge of 4.00 ?C and is moving to the right (perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field) at a speed of 6.70 times 103 m/s. What is the magnitude of the magnetic force acting on Particle X?

Explanation / Answer

F = q*v*B*sin90 = 4*10^-6*6.7*10^3*0.27*sin90 = 7.236e?3 N
