Ultraviolet radiation is dangerous because it has a high enough energy to damage skin cells. UV radiation is called ultraviolet

because it has a frequency which is higher than violet radiation (purple light). Therefore, it has a wavelength which is ___________ than violet radiation.

Answer: smaller

Ultraviolet radiation has broad range of wavelengths, higher number means greater risk of exposure to UV rays that can be dangerous to skin cells. Sunlight is the main source of electromagnetic radiation and it is transmitted in different wavelengths known as electromagnetic spectrum. This spectrum is divided into several regions in order of decreasing wavelength and increasing energy and frequency. UV radiation has frequency and energy that is higher than purple light or violet radiation and the wavelength of ultraviolet radiation is smaller than violet radiation.

Consider a particle with unit charge q, and mass m, in a constant magnetic field B directed along the positive z–axis. The parti
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

it must be helical motion in which the charge particle will move uniformly along z axis and simultaneously it will move in circular path in xy plane.

Explanation:

Magnetic field is along z axis while velocity is in x-z plane

so we will have

F = q(\vec v \times \vec B)

so here we can say

F = q(u\hat i + w\hat k) \times (B \hat k)

so we will have

F = quB(-\hat j)

so here the net force on the charge is perpendicular to its x directional velocity along - Y direction

So due to this component of motion it will move along a circle while other component of the motion will remain uniform always

So here it is combination of two parts

1) Uniform circular motion

2) Uniform motion

So we can say that it must be helical motion in which the charge particle will move uniformly along z axis and simultaneously it will move in circular path in xy plane.

If the current in a wire increases from 5 A to 10 A, what happens to its magnetic field? If the distance of a charged particle f
Anna007 [38]

(1) Doubling of the current through the wire will result in doubling of its magnetic  field.

The magnetic field around a wire is a function of the current I and radial distance r

B = \frac{\mu\cdot I }{2\pi r}

(with mu denoting the magnetic permeability of the medium). So, B is directly proportional to I. The field magnitude will double with the doubled current from 5A to 10A

(2) Using the same formula as in (1), we can see that the magnetic field is inversely proportional to the radial distance from the wire. So, a particle at 20cm will experience half the magnitude compared to a particle at 10cm.

(3) Answer

If a particle with a charge q  moves through a magnetic field B with velocity v, it will be acted on by the magnetic force

F_m = B\cdot v\cdot q

So, a particle with charge -2uC will experience a magnetic force of same magnitude but opposite direction (and perpendicular to B) as compared to a particle with a charge of 2uC
