Answer:
v1 = v2
Explanation:
Given:
- The missing figure is (attached).
- The Magnetic Field B1 > B2
Find:
How does the speed v1 of the electron in region 1 compare with the speed v2 in region 2?
Solution:
- From Lorentz Law we know that the Force that acts on the charge particle is the cross product of Magnetic Field Vector ( B1 or B2 ) and the velocity vector (v1 or v1).
- From the attached figure related to this problem we see that the electron velocity or direction of motion is always parallel to the magnetic field B1&B2.
- The law of cross product for parallel vector is 0. Hence, the Lorentz force acting on the electron is also zero.
- Zero Force means no work is done on the particle by the magnetic field, thus, the change in kinetic energy also zero for conservation of energy to hold.
- The initial and final kinetic energies of the electron is same. Hence, we can conclude that v1 = v2.
