Questions from David Sang and Graham Jones Solutions for Chapter: Motion of Charged Particles, Exercise 4: Questions with Hints & Solutions

MEDIUM
AS and A Level
IMPORTANT

Look at the photograph of the electron beam in the fine-beam tube.

State the direction is the magnetic field (into or out of the plane of the photograph).

Question Image

In this fine-beam tube, a beam of electrons is bent around into a circular orbit by a uniform magnetic field. The beam is shown up by the presence of a small amount of gas in the tube.

HARD
AS and A Level
IMPORTANT

The particles in the circular beam shown in Figure all travel round in the same orbit. State what can you deduce about their mass, charge and speed.

HARD
AS and A Level
IMPORTANT

An electron beam in a vacuum tube is directed at right angles to a magnetic field, so that it travels along a circular path. Predict the effect on the size and shape of the path that would be produced (separately) by each of the following changes:

(a) increasing the magnetic flux density.
