4. A charged particle (q = +4.50 µC) is moving horizontally at speed of 95.0 m/s as shown. It enters a region where a uniform magnetic field B= 7.50 T is directed toward the top of the page as shown. a) (1pt) In which direction, if any, will the charge be deflected at the moment it enters the region where the magnetic field is present? Answer: b) (1pt) Will the deflection, if any, be any different if the charge was negative? Explain: c) (1pt) What is the magnitude of the magnetic force on the particle?

Step 1
The magnetic field is directed upwards and the velocity of the particle is to the right. By using the left hand rule, we find that the deflection will be out of the plane or screen. Show more…

A negative charge q = -3.70 × 10⁻⁶ C is located at the origin and has velocity v = (7.50 × 10⁴ m/s) i + ((-4.90) × 10⁴ m/s) j. At this instant what is the magnetic field produced by this charge at the point x = 0.200 m, y = -0.350 m, z = 0? Enter the x, y, and z components of the magnetic field separated by commas.

$\bullet$ In a 1.25 T magnetic field directed vertically upward, a particle having a charge of magnitude 8.50$\mu \mathrm{C}$ and initially moving northward at 4.75 $\mathrm{km} / \mathrm{s}$ is deflected toward the east. (a) What is the sign of the charge of this particle? Make a sketch to illustrate how you found your answer. (b) Find the magnetic force on the particle.
A particle of charge $q=7.2 \mu \mathrm{C}$ is moving at an angle of $25^{\circ}$ with respect to the $x$ axis with a speed of 250 $\mathrm{m} / \mathrm{s}$. A constant magnetic field of magnitude $0.55 \mathrm{T}$ is parallel to the $+x$ direction. Find the magnitude of the magnetic force on the particle.
