Magnetic field and charged particle help

AI Thread Summary
A charged particle moving at a 13° angle to a magnetic field experiences a magnetic force F. To find the angle at which the same particle will experience a force of 2.4F while maintaining the same speed, the relationship between the force, speed, charge, and angle must be considered. The magnetic force is influenced by the strength of the magnetic field and the angle between the particle's velocity and the field direction. The problem requires applying Ampere's law, which relates the magnetic field to the current and geometry of the system. Understanding the equation that describes the force on a charged particle in a magnetic field is essential for solving this problem.

When a charged particle moves at an angle of 13° with respect to a magnetic field, it experiences a magnetic force of magnitude F. At what angle (less than 90°) with respect to this field will this particle, moving at the same speed, experience a magnetic force of magnitude 2.4F?

Please post your attempt at solving this problem.
 
It says to use Ampere's law

Sum of(Bparallel x change in length) = Permeability of free space x Amperage. This is due by noon today. Please help.

You have a charged particle moving in a magnetic field. The force depends on the strength of the field, the velocity of the charge, the magnitude and sign of the charge, and the angle between the velocity direction and the field direction. In this problem all you are changing is the angle between the directions. Do you know the equation that espresses this relationship?
 

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...
