A beam of neutral hydrogen atoms with a speed of 104 m/s along thex-axis enters a 1 m long region where there is an inhomogeneousmagnetic field pointing in the z direction but with a gradient(variation) in the z direction given by .01 T/m. Given the atom'smagnetic dipole moment of 9.27 x 10 -24 J/T, comput thefollowing.

a) the acceleration of the atoms while in the magnetic fieldregion

b) the possible deflections in the z direction of the atoms as theypass through the magnetic field region, depending on whether theatom's magnetic moment is along the +z or -z direction.
