  • Start date
In summary, a positively charged particle moving in a circle of radius R with velocity v in the plane of the page will experience a force towards the center of the circle if a magnetic field B is into the page. The direction of the velocity must be counterclockwise for this force to occur, as shown by the right hand rule.

Homework Statement



A positively charged particle moves in a circle of radius R in the plane of the page with velocity v when a magnetic field B is into the page. (a) If the magnetic field is increased, will the speed of the charged particle remain the same increase, or decrease?

Homework Equations





The Attempt at a Solution



I just have a problem which is the direction of the velocity I should take.. this problem is number 13 in this site http://www.wellesley.edu/Physics/phyllisflemingphysics/106_p_induction.html, and it's solution is here http://www.wellesley.edu/Physics/phyllisflemingphysics/106_s_induction.html
I didn't understood how to take the sense of v (clock wise or counterclock wise)...hope someone clarify.thanks.

"For a particle to move in a circle, there must be a force into the center of the circle to produce the centripetal acceleration."
thanks pam, i didn't noticed that at first:confused:...it's easy
 

1. What is the Magnatism-Induction problem?

The Magnatism-Induction problem refers to the challenge of understanding and manipulating the relationship between magnetic fields and induced currents. This phenomenon occurs when a changing magnetic field induces a current in a nearby conductor, which can cause interference and disruption in electronic devices.

2. How does magnatism and induction relate to each other?

Magnatism and induction are closely related as induction is a result of the presence of a magnetic field. When a conductor is placed in a changing magnetic field, the magnetic field lines cut across the conductor, inducing a current in the conductor. This relationship is known as Faraday's Law of Induction.

3. What are some common applications of magnatism-induction?

Magnatism-induction has many practical applications, such as in electrical generators, motors, transformers, and wireless charging technology. It is also used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machines for medical imaging, as well as in various electronic devices like speakers and microphones.

4. What are some challenges in dealing with the Magnatism-Induction problem?

One of the main challenges in dealing with the Magnatism-Induction problem is mitigating the interference and disruption it can cause in electronic devices. This requires careful design and shielding of electronic components to minimize the effects of induced currents. Another challenge is understanding and controlling the relationship between magnetic fields and induced currents, which can be complex and difficult to predict.

5. How do scientists study and address the Magnatism-Induction problem?

Scientists study the Magnatism-Induction problem through theoretical models, simulations, and experiments. They use mathematical equations and computer simulations to understand the relationship between magnetic fields and induced currents and how they can be controlled. They also conduct experiments to test and validate their theories and develop practical solutions to mitigate the effects of induced currents.
