Answer:
The magnitude of the magnetic force of the electron is 2.77 x 10⁻¹² N
Explanation:
Given;
speed of the electron, v = 8.0 × 10⁶ m/s
magnetic field strength, B = 2.5 T
angle of inclination of the field, θ = 60°
The magnetic force experienced by the electron in the magnetic field is given as;
F = qvBsinθ
where;
q is charge of electron = 1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹ C
B is strength of magnetic field
v is speed of the electron
Substitute the given values and solve for F
F = (1.6 x 10⁻¹⁹)( 8.0 × 10⁶)(2.5)sin60
F = 2.77 x 10⁻¹² N
Thus, the magnitude of the magnetic force of the electron is 2.77 x 10⁻¹² N
