Bainbridge'S mass spectrometer, shown in Fig. 28-53, separates ions having the same velocity. The ions, after entering through slits, Sl and S2, pass through a velocity selector composed of an electric field produced by the charged plates P and P', and a magnetic field B perpendicular to the electric field and the ion path. The ions that then pass undeviated through the crossed E and B fields enter into a region where a second magnetic field B' exists, where they are made to follow circular Fig. 28- 53 Problem 76.paths. A photographic plate (or a modern detector) registers their arrival. Show that, for the ions, qlm = ElrBB', where r is the radius of the circular orbit.

In Fig. 28-54, an electron moves at speed v = 100 mls along an x axis through uniform electric and magnetic fields. The magnetic field II is directed into the page and has magnitude 5.00 T. In unit- vector notation, what is the electric field?

(a) In Fig. 28-8, show that the ratio of the Hall electric field magnitude E to the magnitude Ec of the electric field responsible for moving charge (the current) along the length of the strip is E B Ec nep where p is the resistivity of the material and n is the number density of the charge carriers. (b) Compute this ratio numerically for Problem 13. (See Table 26-1.)

A proton, a deuteron (q = +e, /11 = 2.0 u), and an alpha particle (q = +2e, In = 4.0 u) are accelerated through the same potential difference and then enter the same region of uniform magnetic field ll, moving perpendicular to ll. What is the ratio of (a) the proton's kinetic energy [(p to the alpha particle's kinetic energy 1(,,, and (b) the deuteron's kinetic energy [(d to [(ex? If the radius of the proton's circular path is 10 cm, what is the radius of (c) the deuteron's path and (d) the alpha particle's path?

An electron in an old-fashioned TV camera tube is moving at 7.20 X 106 mls in a magnetic field of strength 83.0 mT.

A 5.0 f.LC particle moves through a region containing the uniform magnetic field -20; mT and the uniform electric field 300J Vim. At a certain instant the velocity of the particle is (171 - I1J + 7.0k) kmls. At that instant and in unit-vector notation, what is the net electromagnetic force (the sum of the electric and magnetic forces) on the particle?

In a Hall-effect experiment, a current of 3.0 A sent lengthwise through a conductor 1.0 cm wide, 4.0 cm long, and 10 f.Lm thick produces a transverse (across the width) Hall potential difference of 10 f.L V when a magnetic field of 1.5 T is passed perpendicularly through the thickness of the conductor. From these data, find (a) the drift velocity of the charge carriers and (b) the number density of charge carriers. (c) Show on a diagram the polarity of the Hall potential difference with assumed current and magnetic field directions, assuming also that the charge carriers are electrons.

A particle of mass 6.0 g moves at 4.0 kmls in an xy plane, in a region with a uniform magnetic field given by 5.01 mT. At one instant, when the particle's velocity is directed 37 counterclockwise from the positive direction of the x axis, the magnetic force on the particle is 0.48]( N. What is the particle's charge?

An electron has velocity v = (321 + 40]) kmls as it enters a uniform magnetic field II = 601 f.LT. What are (a) the radius of the helical path taken by the electron and (b) the pitch of that path?
