The direction of the magnetic field at a point can be found by placing a small magnetic compass at that point. The north end of the needle of a compass indicates the direction of magnetic field at a point where it is placed.
Dipole moment of the system, p = q × dl = −10−7 C m
Rate of increase of electric field per unit length,
dE/dl=105 NC−1
Force (F) experienced by the system is given...
(a) The initial velocity of the particle is either parallel or anti-parallel to the magnetic field. Hence, it travels along a straight path without suffering any deflection in the field.
(b)...
(a) Earth’s magnetic field changes with time. It takes a few hundred years to change by an appreciable amount. The variation in earth’s magnetic field with the time cannot be
neglected.
(b)Earth’s...
(i) The direction of magnetic field produced around a current-carrying conductor is given by right-hand thumb rule. If the conductor carrying current is held in the right hand in such...
The magnetic field lines of force are the lines drawn in a magnetic field along which a hypothetical north magnetic pole would move if it is free to do so....
(i) Yes, Alpha particles being positively charged constitute a current in the direction of motion.
(ii) No. The neutrons being electrically neutral constitute no current.
(c) : Magnetic field applied parallel to motion of
electron exerts no force on it as θ = 0 and force = Bevsinθ = zero
Electric field opposes motion of electron which...
Force, vector Fm = q vector v x vector B
Obviously, the force on charged particle is perpendicular to both velocity vector v and magnetic field vector B?
