(a) Calculate the y-component of theprotons momentum as they leave the magnetic field.(b) Find the angle a between the initial velocity vectorof the proton beam and the velocity vector after thebeam emerges from the field. Hint: Neglect relativisticeffects and note that 1 eV 5 1.60 3 10219 J.

A straight wire of mass 10.0 g and length 5.0 cm is suspendedfrom two identical springs that, in turn, forma closed circuit (Fig. P19.74). The springs stretch a distanceof 0.50 cm under the weight of the wire. The circuithas a total resistance of 12 V. When a magneticfield directed out of the page (indicated by the dots inthe figure) is turned on, the springs are observed tostretch an additional 0.30 cm. What is the strength ofthe magnetic field? (The upper portion of the circuit isfixed.)

A 1.00-kg ball having net charge Q 5 5.00 mC is thrownout of a window horizontally at a speed v 5 20.0 m/s.The window is at a height h 5 20.0 m above the ground.A uniform horizontal magnetic field of magnitudeB 5 0.010 0 T is perpendicular to the plane of theballs trajectory. Find the magnitude of the magneticforce acting on the ball just before it hits the ground.Hint: Ignore magnetic forces in finding the balls finalvelocity.

Two long, parallel conductors separated by 10.0 cmcarry currents in the same direction. The first wire carriesa current I1 5 5.00 A, and the second carries I2 58.00 A. (a) What is the magnitude of the magnetic fieldcreated by I1 at the location of I2? (b) What is the forceper unit length exerted by I1 on I2? (c) What is the magnitudeof the magnetic field created by I2 at the locationof I1? (d) What is the force per length exerted by I2on I1?
