Question
Please help!What is a) the magnitude of the magnetic field at thelocation of the particle and b) the current in the wire if a52C charged particle moves parallel to a long wire with aspeed of 720 m/s, the separation between the particle and the wireis 13 cm and the magnitude of the force exerted on the particle is1.4 x 10-7 N?
B = _____________
I = ______________
Explanation / Answer
We know that F = Bqv ==> We have B = F /qv = 1.4 x 10-7 / 52 * x 10-6 *720 = 3.735 T We know that B = oI / 2r ==> I = 2r B / o = 2 * * 0.13 * 3.735 x 10-6 / 4 x10-7 = 2.4 A
