What is the magnetic field strength required to make a proton with a speed of 5.0 x 10^(5) m/s follow a circular path of radius 0.0200 m?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Magnetic field strength required for this is 0.25 T

Explanation:

As we know that the proton moves in circular path in uniform magnetic field

so the radius of the path of the circle is given as

[tex]R = \frac{mv}{qB}[/tex]

here we know that

[tex]q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19}C[/tex]

[tex]m = 1.6 \times 10^{-27} kg[/tex]

[tex]R = 0.0200 m[/tex]

[tex]v = 5 \times 10^5 m/s[/tex]

now we have

[tex]B = \frac{1.6 \times 10^{-27} (5 \times 10^5)}{(1.6 \times 10^{-19})(0.02)}[/tex]

so we have

[tex]B = 0.25 T[/tex]
