Chapter 19 Problem 19.31

Question

A singly charged positive ion has a mass of 2.50 1026 kg. After being accelerated through a potential difference of 250 V, the ion enters a magnetic eld of 0.500 T, in a direction perpendicular to the eld. Calculate the radius of the path of the ion in the eld.

Solution

Step 1 of 4)

The first step in solving 19 problem number 31 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: A singly charged positive ion has a mass of 2.50 1026 kg. After being accelerated through a potential difference of 250 V, the ion enters a magnetic eld of 0.500 T, in a direction perpendicular to the eld. Calculate the radius of the path of the ion in the eld.
From the textbook chapter Magnetism you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
