Instruction: Input numerical values only; no unit. Keep two decimal points for your numerical answer. Example: -3.14, -314.51, 3.14, 314.51 A charged particle is injected at 762 m/s into a 6-T uniform magnetic field perpendicularly to the field. If the charge-to-mass ratio of the particle is 9 C/kg, what is the radius of the circular path the particle makes (in unit meters)?

Step 1
The force experienced by a charged particle moving in a magnetic field is given by the equation: F = qvBsinθ where F is the force, q is the charge of the particle, v is the velocity of the particle, B is the magnetic field strength, and θ is the angle between Show more…

Alpha particles are accelerated through a potential of 1000 volts and then enter a magnetic field of 0.2 T perpendicular to their direction of motion. Calculate the radius of the circular path that they traverse. An alpha particle has a mass of 6.68 x 10^-27 kg and a charge of +2e.
