The direction of deflection of an electron beam in a magnetic field can be determined by which of the following?
1 answer:
Answer:
Right Hand Rule
Explanation:
When a charged particle travels in a magnetic field, it experiences a force whose magnitude is given by:
where
q is the charge of the particle
v is the velocity
B is the magnetic field strength
is the angle between the directions of v and B
The direction of the force can be determined by using the Right Hand Rule, as follows:
- index finger: this should be put in the direction of the velocity
- middle finger: this should be put in the direction of the magnetic field
- thumb: this will give the direction of the force -> however, for a negative charge (as the electron) the direction must be reversed, so it will be opposite.

According to Ideal gasTo solve this problem, the fastest relationship allows us to observe the proportionality between the two variables would be the one expressed in the ideal gas equation, which is
Here
P = Pressure
V = Volume
N = Number of moles
R = Gas constant
T = Temperature
We can see that the pressure is proportional to the temperature, then
This relationship can be extrapolated to all the scenarios in which these two variables are related. As the pressure increases the temperature increases. The same goes for the pressure in the atmosphere, for which an increase in this will generate an increase in temperature. This variable can be observed in areas of different altitude. At higher altitude lower atmospheric pressure and lower temperature.
