Protons having a kinetic energy of 5.00 MeV (1eV = 1.60×10−19 J) are moving in the positive x-direction and enter a magnetic field directed out of the plane of the page and extending from to as shown in the figure below.
(a) Find the angle α between the initial velocity vector of the proton beam and the velocity vector after the beam emerges from the field.
(b) Calculate the y component of the protons' momenta as they leave the magnetic field.
Protons having a kinetic energy of 5.00 MeV are moving in the positive x-direction and enter a magnetic field of B= 0.0500 k^ T in the directed out of the plane of the page, and extending from x = 0 to x = 1.00 m as shown in figure P28.50.
(a) Ignoring relativistic effects, find the angle between the initial velocity vector of the proton beam and the velocity vector after the beam emerges from the field.
(b) Calculate the y components of the protons as the momenta as they leave the magnetic field.
Protons having a kinetic energy of 5.00 MeV (1 eV = 1.60 × 10−19 J) are moving in the positive x direction and enter a magnetic field B→=0.050 0kˆB→=0.050 0k^ T directed out of the plane of the page and extending from x = 0 to x = 1.00 m as shown in Figure P28.50. (a) Ignoring relativistic effects, find the angle α between the initial velocity vector of the proton beam and the velocity vector after the beam emerges from the field. (b) Calculate the y component of the protons’ momenta as they leave the magnetic field.
