Question

what effect does the magnetic field have on the speed of theparticle? What are the magnitude of the acceleration of the alphaparticle while it is in the magnetic field? What are the direction of the acceleration of the alphaparticle while it is in the magnetic field? Explain why the speed of the particle does not change eventhough an unbalanced external force acts on it. what effect does the magnetic field have on the speed of theparticle?

Explanation / Answer

the magnetic field exerts on the moving charge particles F=q*v*B; where q is charge of the particle, v is thespeed the magnitude of the acceleration of the alpha particlewhile it is in the magnetic field F=m*a a=q*v*B/m the direction of the acceleration of the alpha particlewhile it is in the magnetic field, is perpendicular tovelocity, the same direction with the F the speed of the particle does not change even though anunbalanced external force acts on it, because the force F is alwaysperpendicular to vector velocity v, => work done by F is always =0, the speed of the particle does not change even though anunbalanced external force acts on it, because the force F is alwaysperpendicular to vector velocity v, => work done by F is always =0,
