(a) A velocity selector consists of electric and magnetic fields described by the expressions E→ = Ek^ and B→ = Bj^, with B = 22.0 mT. Find the value of E (in kV/m) such that a 740 eV electron moving in the negative x-direction is undeflected. kV/m (b) What If? For the value of E found in part (a), what would the kinetic energy of a proton have to be (in MeV) for it to move undeflected in the negative x-direction? MeV

(a) An electron moves through a uniform electric field E→ = (2.00 i^ + 5.90 j^) V/m and a uniform magnetic field B→ = 0.400 k^ T. Determine the acceleration of the electron when it has a velocity v→ = 12.0 i^ m/s. (Give each component in m/s2.) ax = m/s2 ay = m/s2 az = m/s2 m/s2 (b) What If? For the electron moving along the x-axis in the fields in part (a), what speed (in m/s) would result in the electron also experiencing an acceleration directed along the x-axis? m/s

(a) A wire is held horizontally in a vacuum chamber, and carries a current of 1.85 μA. A proton is traveling in a direction parallel to the wire (opposite the current) with a constant speed of 2.90×104 m/s at a distance d above the wire. Ignoring the magnetic field due to the Earth, determine the value of d (in cm). cm (b) What If? At what distance d (in m) would an electron moving with the same speed as the proton move parallel to the wire? m What direction would the electron have to move? In the same direction as the proton. In the opposite direction as the proton. There is too little information to determine the direction.

An electron is traveling with initial kinetic energy K in a uniform electric field. The electron comes to rest momentarily after traveling a distance d. (a) What is the magnitude of the electric field? (Use any variable or symbol stated above along with the following as necessary: e for the charge of the electron.) E = (b) What is the direction of the electric field? in the direction of the electron's motion opposite to the direction of the electron's motion perpendicular to the direction of the electron's motion (c) What If? Fluoride ions (which have the same charge as an electron) are initially moving with the same speed as the electrons from part (a) through a different uniform electric field. The ions come to a stop in the same distance d. Let the mass of an ion be M and the mass of an electron be m. Find the ratio of the magnitude of electric field the ions travel through to the magnitude of the electric field found in part (a). (Use the following as necessary: d, k, m, M, and e for the charge of the electron.) Enew Epart (a) =
