Electron Field Magnetic Magnetic field Time

AI Thread Summary

To determine the time an electron spends in a magnetic field with a strength of 0.5T and an angle of deflection of 30 degrees, one can calculate the time period T for a full 360-degree rotation. Given the magnetic field, the time for the electron to travel 30 degrees can be derived from the total time period. The discussion concludes with a participant expressing gratitude for the clarification and confirming their understanding of the concept. This approach effectively simplifies the calculation of time in the magnetic field.

Hello.. Does anyone know how to find the time t an electron spent in a magnetic field region if the only thing given are the magnetic field B=0.5T and angle of deflection 30 degrees?

You can find time period T of electron as you know B. Electron travels 360 deg in T, so what time will it take to travel 30 deg, you can find.

Thread 'I've come across another fluid pressure problem I don't understand'

Neglect gravity other than that of water; neglect friction. F1=ρgsh=1000*10*1*(1+4)=50000 N; F1=ρgsh=1000*10*0.1*4=4000 N; F3=50000-4000=46000 N?

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...

Thread 'Variable mass system : water sprayed into a moving container'

Starting with the mass considerations #m(t)# is mass of water #M_{c}# mass of container and #M(t)# mass of total system $$M(t) = M_{C} + m(t)$$ $$\Rightarrow \frac{dM(t)}{dt} = \frac{dm(t)}{dt}$$ $$P_i = Mv + u \, dm$$ $$P_f = (M + dm)(v + dv)$$ $$\Delta P = M \, dv + (v - u) \, dm$$ $$F = \frac{dP}{dt} = M \frac{dv}{dt} + (v - u) \frac{dm}{dt}$$ $$F = u \frac{dm}{dt} = \rho A u^2$$ from conservation of momentum , the cannon recoils with the same force which it applies. $$\quad \frac{dm}{dt}...
