- Homework Statement
- What is the magnitude of the magnetic force on a charged particle (Q = 5.0 μC) moving
with a speed of 80 km/s in the positive x direction at a point where Bx = 5.0 T, By = –4.0 T,
and Bz = 3.0 T?
a . 2.8 N
b. 1.6 N
c. 1.2 N
d. 2.0 N <- answer
e. 0.4 N
- Relevant Equations
- F = Q V X B
8000 | 0 | 0 |
5 | -4 | 3 |
F = (5 x10^-6) {0i - 24000 j - 32000 k)
F = -0.12 j - 0.16 k
Mag of F = 0.2 (I feel that there is something wrong in the question; I don't know)
