Magnetics Ques 34

  1. The region between $x=0$ and $x=L$ is filled with uniform steady magnetic field $-B _0 \hat{\mathbf{k}}$. A particle of mass $m$, positive charge $q$ and velocity $v _0 \hat{\mathbf{i}}$ travels along $x$-axis and enters the region of the magnetic field.

$(1999,10 M)$

Neglect the gravity throughout the question.

(a) Find the value of $L$ if the particle emerges from the region of magnetic field with its final velocity at an angle $30^{\circ}$ to its initial velocity.

(b) Find the final velocity of the particle and the time spent by it in the magnetic field, if the magnetic field now expands upto $2.1 L$.

Answer:

Correct Answer: 34.$(a) L=\frac{m v _0}{2 B _0 q} \quad (b) v_f =-v _0 \hat{\mathbf{i}} ,\frac{\pi m}{B _0 q}$

Solution:

Formula:

Magnetic Force Acting On A Moving Point Charge:

  1. (a)

$ \begin{aligned} \theta & =30^{\circ} \\ \sin \theta & =\frac{L}{R} \end{aligned} $

Here, $\quad R=\frac{m v _0}{B _0 q}$

$\therefore \quad \sin 30^{\circ}=\frac{L}{\frac{m v _0}{B _0 q}}$

or

$ \frac{1}{2}=\frac{B _0 q L}{m v _0} \Rightarrow L=\frac{m v _0}{2 B _0 q} $

(b) In part (a)

$ \begin{gathered} \sin 30^{\circ}=\frac{L}{R} \quad \text { or } \frac{1}{2}=\frac{L}{R} \\ \text { or } \quad L=R / 2 \end{gathered} $

Now when $L^{\prime}=2.1 L$

or $\quad \frac{2.1}{2} R \quad \Rightarrow \quad L^{\prime}>R$

Therefore, deviation of the particle is $\theta=180^{\circ}$ as shown.

$ \begin{array}{ll} \therefore & \mathbf{v} _f=-v _0 \hat{\mathbf{i}} \\ \text { and } & t _{A B}=T / 2=\frac{\pi m}{B _0 q} \end{array} $
