Question

SLPaper 2

An electron gun is used to produce a narrow beam of electrons which enters a region of uniform magnetic field. The electrons follow a circular path in this magnetic field.

(a)

the direction of the force acting on an electron when it enters the magnetic field perpendicularly.

[1]

(b)

Write an equation for the magnetic force acting on a charged particle moving in a magnetic field.

[1]

(c)

the path taken by the electron in the magnetic field and the cause of this motion.

[2]

(d)

the speed of an electron accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 4.0 kV.

[2]

(e)

the radius of the circular path taken by the electron in a magnetic field of 0.30 T.
