Answer:
<h2><em>
10.4⁰ and 169.6⁰</em></h2>
Explanation:
The force experienced by the moving electron in the magnetic field is expressed as F = qvBsinθ where;
q is the charge on the electron
v is the velocity of the electron
B is the magnetic field strength
θ is the angle that the velocity of the electron make with the magnetic field.
Given parameters
F = 1.40*10⁻¹⁶ N
q = 1.6*10⁻¹⁹C
v = 3.94*10³m/s
B = 1.23T
Required
Angle that the velocity of the electron make with the magnetic field
Substituting the given parameters into the formula:
1.40*10⁻¹⁶ = 1.6*10⁻¹⁹ * 3.94*10³ * 1.23 * sinθ
1.40*10⁻¹⁶ = 7.75392 * 10⁻¹⁹⁺³sinθ
1.40*10⁻¹⁶ = 7.75392 * 10⁻¹⁶sinθ
sinθ = 1.40*10⁻¹⁶/7.75392 * 10⁻¹⁶
sinθ = 1.40/7.75392
sinθ = 0.1806
θ = sin⁻¹0.1806
θ₁ = 10.4⁰
Since sinθ is positive in the 1st and 2nd quadrant, θ₂ = 180-θ₁
θ₂ = 180-10.4
θ₂ = 169.6⁰
<em>Hence, the angle that the velocity of the electron make with the magnetic field are 10.4⁰ and 169.6⁰</em>
