1 answer:
This question is incomplete, the complete question is;
A particle is directed along the axis of the instrument in the figure below. A parallel plate capacitor sets up an electric field E, which is oriented perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field B. If the plates are separated by d = 2.0 mm and the value of the magnetic field is B = 0.60T.
Calculate the potential difference, between the capacitor plates, required to allow a particle with speed v = 5.0 × 10⁵ m/s to pass straight through without deflection.
<em>Hint </em>: ΔV = Ed <em> </em>
Answer:
the required potential difference, between the capacitor plates is 600 V
Explanation:
Given the data in the question;
B = 0.60 T
d = 2.0 mm = 0.002 m
v = 5.0 × 10⁵ m/s.
since particle pass straight through without deflection.
F = 0
so, F = F
qE = qvB
divide both sides by q
E = vB
we substitute
E = (5.0 × 10⁵) × 0.6
E = 300000 N/C
given that; potential difference ΔV = Ed
we substitute
ΔV = 300000 × 0.002
ΔV = 600 V
Therefore, the required potential difference, between the capacitor plates is 600 V

In an electromagnetic wave, the electric field and the magnetic field oscillate perpendicular to each other, and they both oscillate perpendicular to the direction of propagation of the wave. Therefore, we have:
- direction of propagation of the wave --> positive x axis
- direction of oscillation of electric field --> y axis
- direction of oscillation of magnetic field --> perpendicular to both, so it must be z-axis
