Chapter 22, Problem 87

(choose chapter or problem)

A charged particle moves in a horizontal plane with a speed of . When this particle encounters a uniform magnetic eld in the vertical direction it begins to move on a circular path of radius 15.9 cm. (a) If the magnitude of the magnetic eld is 1.21 T, what is the charge-to-mass ratio (q/m) of this particle? (b) If the radius of the circular path were greater than 15.9 cm, would the corresponding charge-to-mass ratio be greater than, less than, or the same as that found in part (a)? Explain. (Assume that the magnetic eld remains the same.)
