Problem 64

Estimate the approximate maximum deflection of the electron beam near the center of a CRT television screen due to the Earth's $5.0 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{~T}$ field. Assume the screen is $18 \mathrm{~cm}$ from the electron gun, where the electrons are accelerated
(a) by $2.0 \mathrm{kV}$, or $(b)$ by $28 \mathrm{kV}$. Note that in color TV sets, the beam must be directed accurately to within less than $1 \mathrm{~mm}$ in order to strike the correct phosphor. Because the Earth's field is significant here, mu-metal shields are used to reduce the Earth's field in the CRT. (See Section $23-9 .)$

Problem 66

The cyclotron (Fig. $27-50$ ) is a device used to accelerate elementary particles such as protons to high speeds. Particles starting at point $\mathrm{A}$ with some initial velocity travel in circular orbits in the magnetic field $B .$ The particles are accelerated to higher speeds each time they pass in the gap between the metal "dees," where there is an electric field $E$. (There is no electric field within the hollow metal dees.) The electric field changes direction each half-cycle, due to an ac voltage $V=V_{0} \sin 2 \pi f t,$ so that the particles are increased in speed at each passage through the gap.
(a) Show that the frequency $f$ of the voltage must be $f=B q / 2 \pi m,$ where $q$ is the charge on the particles and $m$ their mass. $(b)$ Show that the kinetic energy of the particles increases by $2 q V_{0}$ each revolution, assuming that the gap is small. (c) If the radius of the cyclotron is $0.50 \mathrm{~m}$ and the magnetic field strength is $0.60 \mathrm{~T}$ what will be the maximum kinetic energy of accelerated protons in $\mathrm{MeV} ?$

Problem 67

Magnetic fields are very useful in particle accelerators for "beam steering"; that is, magnetic fields can be used to change the beam's direction without altering its speed (Fig. $27-51)$. Show how this could work with a beam of protons. What happens to protons that are not moving with the speed that the magnetic field is designed for? If the field extends over a region $5.0 \mathrm{~cm}$ wide and has a magnitude of $0.38 \mathrm{~T}$, by approximately what angle will a beam of protons traveling $\quad$ at $0.85 \times 10^{7} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ be bent?

Problem 69

A sort of "projectile launcher" is shown in Fig. $27-53 .$ A large current moves in a closed loop composed of fixed rails, a power supply, and a very light, almost frictionless bar touching the rails. A $1.8 \mathrm{~T}$ magnetic field is perpendicular to the plane of the circuit. If the rails are a distance $d=24 \mathrm{~cm}$ apart, and the bar has a mass of $1.5 \mathrm{~g}$, what constant current flow is needed to accelerate the bar from rest to $25 \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ in a distance of $1.0 \mathrm{~m}$ ? In what direction must the field point?

Problem 70

(a) What value of magnetic field would make a beam of electrons, traveling to the right at a speed of $4.8 \times 10^{6} \mathrm{~m} / \mathrm{s}$ go undeflected through a region where there is a uniform electric field of $8400 \mathrm{~V} / \mathrm{m}$ pointing vertically up? $(b)$ What is the direction of the magnetic field if it is known to be perpendicular to the electric field? $(c)$ What is the frequency of the circular orbit of the electrons if the electric field is turned off?

Problem 71

In a certain cathode ray tube, electrons are accelerated horizontally by $25 \mathrm{kV}$. They then pass through a uniform magnetic field $B$ for a distance of $3.5 \mathrm{~cm},$ which deflects them upward so they reach the top of the screen $22 \mathrm{~cm}$ away, $11 \mathrm{~cm}$ above the center. Estimate the value of $B$.

Problem 72

Zeeman effect. In the Bohr model of the hydrogen atom, the electron is held in its circular orbit of radius $r$ about its proton nucleus by electrostatic attraction. If the atoms are placed in a weak magnetic field $\overrightarrow{\mathbf{B}}$, the rotation frequency of electrons rotating in a plane perpendicular to $\overrightarrow{\mathbf{B}}$ is changed by an amount
$$
\Delta f=\pm \frac{e B}{4 \pi m}
$$
where $e$ and $m$ are the charge and mass of an electron.
(a) Derive this result, assuming the force due to $\overrightarrow{\mathbf{B}}$ is much less than that due to electrostatic attraction of the nucleus.
(b) What does the $\pm$ sign indicate?

Problem 73

A proton follows a spiral path through a gas in a magnetic field of $0.018 \mathrm{~T}$, perpendicular to the plane of the spiral, as shown in Fig. $27-54 .$ In two successive loops, at points $P$ and $\mathrm{Q},$ the radii are $10.0 \mathrm{~mm}$ and $8.5 \mathrm{~mm},$ respectively. Calculate the change in the kinetic energy of the proton as it travels from $P$ to $Q$

Problem 74

The net force on a current loop whose face is perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field is zero, since contributions to the net force from opposite sides of the loop cancel. However, if the field varies in magnitude from one side of the loop to the other, then there can be a net force on the loop. Consider a square loop with sides whose length is $a$, located with one side at $x=b$ in the $x y$ plane (Fig. 27-55). A magnetic field is directed along $z$, with a magnitude that varies with $x$ according to
$$
B=B_{0}\left(1-\frac{x}{b}\right)
$$
If the current in the loop circulates counterclockwise (that is, the magnetic dipole moment of the loop is along the $z$ axis), find an expression for the net force on the loop.

Problem 75

The power cable for an electric trolley (Fig. $27-56$ ) carries a horizontal current of $330 \mathrm{~A}$ toward the east. The Earth's magnetic field has a strength $5.0 \times 10^{-5} \mathrm{~T}$ and makes an angle of dip of $22^{\circ}$ at this location. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the magnetic force on a 5.0 -m length of this cable.

Problem 76

A uniform conducting rod of length $d$ and mass $m$ sits atop a fulcrum, which is placed a distance $d / 4$ from the rod's left-hand end and is immersed in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude $B$ directed into the page (Fig. $27-57$ ). An object whose mass $M$ is 8.0 times greater than the rod's mass is hung from the rod's left-hand end. What current (direction and magnitude) should flow through the rod in order for it to be "balanced" (i.e., be at rest horizontally) on the fulcrum? (Flexible connecting wires which $d$ exert negligible force on the rod are not shown.)

Problem 77

In a simple device for measuring the magnitude $B$ of a magnetic field, a conducting rod (length $d=1.0 \mathrm{~m},$ mass $m=150 \mathrm{~g}$ ) hangs from a friction-free pivot and is oriented so that its axis of rotation is aligned with the direction of the magnetic field to be measured. Thin flexible wires (which exert negligible force on the rod) carry a current $I=12 \mathrm{~A}$, which causes the rod to deflect an angle $\theta$ with respect to the vertical, where it remains at rest (Fig. $27-58) .(a)$ Is the current flowing upward (toward the pivot) or downward in Fig. $27-58 ? \quad(b)$ If $\theta=13^{\circ},$ determine $B$ (c) What is the largest magnetic field magnitude that can be measured using this device?
