Question

Problem 17.42

An electron moves at speed 9.0 × 106 m/s toward the right between two parallel plates, such as shown in (Figure 1) . A 0.11-T magnetic field points into the paper parallel to the plate surfaces.

Part A

Determine the magnitude of the magnetic force that the magnetic field exerts on the electron.

Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

Explanation / Answer

a)f = QvB

f = 1.6*10^-19*9*10^6*0.11 = 15.84*10^-13 N

b) downward

c) qE = f

E = f/q = 9.9*10^6 N/C

d) upward
