An experimentalist fires a beam of electrons, creating a visible path in the air that can be measured. The beam is fired along a

direction parallel to a current-carrying wire, and the electrons travel in a circular path in response to the wire's magnetic field. Assuming the mass and charge of the electrons is known, what quantities would you need to measure in order to deduce the current in the wire and the magnetic field due to that current?

Answer:  

Velocity of the electron in the beam.

Radius of the circulating electrons due to the magnetic field.

Explanation:

We have a Mathematical expression for the force on a moving charge in a magnetic field as:

F=q.v.B.sin \theta ...........................(1)

where:

q= charge on the particle in coulomb

v= velocity of the charge projected into the magnetic field

B= intensity of the magnetic field in tesla

\theta= angle between the velocity and direction of magnetic field

For the forces on rotating mass we have the formula:

F=m.\frac{v^2}{r}..........................................(2)

where:

m= mass of the charged particle

v= velocity of projection of charge into the magnetic field

r= radius of the path traced  by the charge in the magnetic field

From eq. (1) and (2) we can calculate the magnetic field .

Now,

Using Ampere's Law we have:

B = \frac{\mu_0 .I}{2 \pi r}

where:

I= current in the wire

\mu_0= The permeability of free space.

r= radial distance from the current carrying wire( in this case it is same as the radius of the circular path)

kramer
I think the question should be the below:

<span>What is the total distance, side to side, that the top of the building moves during such an oscillation?
</span>
Answer is the below:

 <span>Acceleration .. a = (-) ω² x </span>
<span>(ω = equivalent ang. vel. = 2π.f) (x = displacement from equilibrium position) </span>

<span>x (max) = a(max) /ω² </span>

<span>x = (0.015 x 9.8m/s²) / (2π.f)² .. .. (0.147) / (2π*0.22)² .. .. ►x(max) = 0.077m .. (7.70cm)</span>

What is a free electron? Can someone help?
Aleksandr [31]
A free electron is one which has become detached from a covalent bond between two atoms and is able to move around from atom to atom and possibly take part in electric current flow.

What is the answer to this question?

Acceleration is a change in *speed* over time. In this case, the speed of the car increased by 90 km/hr in 6 s, giving it a rate of 90 km/hr/6s, or 15 km/hr/s. We’re asked for the acceleration in m/s^2, though, so we’ll need to do a few conversions to get our units straight.

There are 1000 m in 1 km, 60 min, or 60 * 60 = 3600 s in 1 hr, so we can change our rate to:

(15 x 1000)m/3600s/s, or (15 x 1000)m/3600 s^2

We can reduce this to:

(15 x 10)m/36 s^2 = 150 m/36 s^2

Which, dividing numerator and denominator by 36, gets us a final answer of roughly 4.17 m/s^2
