How does the magnetic field affect the speed of a particle Experiment

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on planning an experiment to investigate how a magnetic field influences the speed of a particle, specifically using the equation qvB = mv². A participant suggests using a current-carrying conductor as a potential method for the experiment. The conversation seeks input on the relevance of this approach and invites suggestions for alternative solutions. Additionally, there is a query about the available apparatus that can be used for the experiment. Overall, the aim is to find a logical and feasible experimental setup.

Homework Statement


I am required to plan an experiment on how does the magnetic field affect the speed of a particle.


Homework Equations


qvB=m v2


The Attempt at a Solution


I have thought of using the experiment on current carrying conductor. Do you think it is relavent? Is there other solutions?

I can use any apparatus as long as it is logical and not too advanced
 

Thread 'Rolling without slipping on a curved surface'

Kindly see the attached pdf. My attempt to solve it, is in it. I'm wondering if my solution is right. My idea is this: At any point of time, the ball may be assumed to be at an incline which is at an angle of θ(kindly see both the pics in the pdf file). The value of θ will continuously change and so will the value of friction. I'm not able to figure out, why my solution is wrong, if it is wrong .

Thread 'Struggling to understand the concept of this question (ice cube in water optics question)'

TL;DR Summary: I came across this question from a Sri Lankan A-level textbook. Question - An ice cube with a length of 10 cm is immersed in water at 0 °C. An observer observes the ice cube from the water, and it seems to be 7.75 cm long. If the refractive index of water is 4/3, find the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. I could not understand how the apparent height of the ice cube in the water depends on the height of the ice cube immersed in the water. Does anyone have an...
