Answer:
a) The trajectory will be a helical path.
b) θ = 2*π rad
Explanation:
a) Since the initial velocity of the particle has a component parallel (x-component) to the magnetic field B
, the trajectory will be a helical path.
b) Given
t = 2*π*m/(q*B)
We can use the equation
θ = ω*Δt
where
θ is the angular displacement
ω is the angular speed, which is obtained as follows:
ω = q*B/m
then we have
θ = (q*B/m)*2*π*m/(q*B)
⇒ θ = 2*π rad
There are at least two forces on it, and there could be more.
Vertical forces:
-- gravity, directed downward
-- buoyant force, directed upward
These two forces must be exactly equal, so that the net
vertical force on the raft is zero. Otherwise, it would be
accelerating either up or down.
Horizontal forces:
We know that the net horizontal force on the raft is zero.
Otherwise, it would be accelerating horizontally.
But we don't know if there are actually no horizontal forces
at all, or a balanced group of horizontal forces, that add up
to a net force of zero.
