A proton travels at right angles through a magnetic field of 0.025 Tesla's. If the magnitude of the magnetic force on the proton is 1.8x10^-14 Newton's, what is the velocity of the proton

Respuesta :

Answer:

Velocity of proton will be equal to 4500 m/sec

Explanation:

We have given that proton moves right angles through a magnetic field

So angle between magnetic field and velocity of proton is [tex]\Theta =90^{\circ}[/tex]

Magnetic field B = 0.025 Tesla

Charge on proton [tex]e=1.6\times 10^{-16}C[/tex]

Magnetic force on the proton is given [tex]F=1.8\times 10^{-14}N[/tex]

Magnetic force on a moving charge particle is equal to [tex]F=qvBsin\Theta[/tex]

So [tex]1.8\times 10^{-14}=1.6\times 10^{-16}\times v\times 0.025\times sin90^{\circ}[/tex]

v = 4500 m/sec

So velocity of proton will be equal to 4500 m/sec
