A particle of mass m and charge q is moving in a region where uniform, constant electric and magnetic E & B fields are present, E & B are parallel to each other. At time t = 0 the velocity of the particle is perpendicular to E . (Assume that its speed is always <<c, the speed of light in vacuum). Find the velocity v of the particle at time t. You must express your answer in terms of t, q, m, the vectors v0E & B and their magnitudes v0, E and B.

A current of 10 A flows around a closed path in a circuit which is in the horizontal plane. The circuit consists of eight alternating arcs of radii r1 = 0.08 m and r2 = 0.12 m. Each arc subtends the same angle at the centre.

(i) Find the magnetic field produced by this circuit at the centre.

(ii) An infinitely long straight wire carrying a current of 10 A is passing through the centre of the given circuit vertically with the direction of the current being into the plane of the circuit. What is the force acting on the wire at the centre due to the current in the circuit? What is the force acting on the arc AC and the straight segment CD due to the current in the central wire.

A rectangular loop PQRS made from a uniform wire has length a, width b and mass m. It is free to rotate about the arm PQ, which remains hinged along a horizontal line taken as the y-axis as shown in figure.Take the vertically upward direction as the z - axis. A uniform magnetic field B = (3i^ + 4k^)B0 exists in the region. The loop is held in the x-y plane and a current I is passed through it. The loop is now released and is found to stay in the horizontal position in equilibrium.

(a) Prove by the Biot-Savart law that the magnetic field, if any, at a point is always tangential to the circle passing through the point, with the centre of the circles on the axis of the cylinder.

(b) Find the magnetic field due to the current as a function of radius.

(c) A beam of particles, each with positive charge q and mass m travels with initial velocity v anti-parallel to the direction of the current. Assume that the length of cylinder is L. Find the deflection of a particle as a function of its initial distance r from the axis if r > b when it goes from one end to other end. You can assume that the velocity is high enough such that the velocity is constant and the deflection is small.
