An electron experiences a downward force of 12.8×10-19 N while traveling in a magnetic field of 8×10-5 T west, what is the magnitude of the velocity?

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]v=10^5\ m/s[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that,

Magnetic force acting on an electron, [tex]F=12.8\times 10^{-19}\ N[/tex]

The magnitude of the magnetic field,[tex]B=8\times 10^{-5}\ T[/tex]

We need to find the magnitude of the velocity. We know that the magnetic force is given by :

[tex]F=qvB[/tex]

Where

v is the velocity

So,

[tex]v=\dfrac{F}{qB}\\\\v=\dfrac{12.8\times 10^{-19}}{1.6\times 10^{-19}\times 8\times 10^{-5}}\\\\v=10^5\ m/s[/tex]

So, the magnitude of velocity is[tex]10^5\ m/s[/tex].
