Noteguide For Particles in A Magnetic Field - Videos 20C Name

1. The document provides equations and examples for calculating the force on charged particles moving through a magnetic field. 2. It gives the equation F = qvBsinθ for calculating force, where q is the particle's charge, v is its velocity, B is the magnetic field strength, and θ is the angle between v and B. 3. Several example problems are worked through applying this equation to calculate forces on protons, electrons, and alpha particles in given magnetic field conditions.

Noteguide for Particles in a Magnetic Field - Videos 20C Name

Recall
F = IlBsinq
Derive
F = qvBsinq
• F = force on moving particle
• q = charge on particle (in C) (+ or -???)
• v = particle’s velocity
• q = angle twixt v and B

2.5 x 10 m/s to the North in a 0.35 T magnetic on an alpha particle going 17% the speed of light?
field to the East? (1.4 x 10-11 N, Downward) alpha = 2p2n (0.073 T)
q = 1.602 x 10-19 C q = 2(1.602 x 10-19 C) = 3.204 x 10-19 C
v = 0.17x3.00 x 108 m/s = 5.1 x 107 m/s

Whiteboards
