At a certain location, the horizontal component of the earth's magnetic field is 4.6E-5 T, due north. A proton moves eastward with just the right speed, so the magnetic force on it balances the weight. Find the speed of the proton.
A charged particle with a charge-to-mass ratio of q/m = 6.0E8 C/kg travels on a circular path that is perpendicular to a magnetic field whose magnitude is 0.71 T. How much time does it take for the particle to complete one revolution?
Suppose that an ion source in a mass spectrometer produces doubly ionized gold ions (Au2+), each with a mass of 3.27 10-25 kg. The ions are accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 1.30 kV. Then, a 0.490 T magnetic field causes the ions to follow a circular path. Determine the radius of the path.
