Chapter 21 Magnetic Forces and Magnetic Fields

21.3 The Motion of a Charged Particle in a Magnetic Field

Conceptual Example 2 A Velocity Selector A velocity selector is a device for measuring the velocity of a charged particle. The device operates by applying electric and magnetic forces to the particle in such a way that these forces balance. How should an electric field be applied so that the force it applies to the particle can balance the magnetic force? From RHR-1, FM points upward, so FE should point downward so the forces balance, i.e., FM - FE =0 --> FM = FE Since FM = qvB FE = qE

Then, qvB = qE --> v = E/B , knowing E and B gives v independent of q

21.3 The Motion of a Charged Particle in a Magnetic Field

Work done on a charged particle moving through electric and magnetic fields. For a constant force, F, --> WAB = Fs = KE where s is the displacement along the direction of F and KE is the change in the KE. The electrical force can do work on a charged particle since it can displace the particle in the direction of the force and thus change its kinetic energy.

The magnetic force cannot do work on a charged particle since it acts perpendicular to the motion of the particle so that no displacement occurs along the direction of the force and thus its speed remains constant and its kinetic energy does not change.

21.3 The Motion of a Charged Particle in a Magnetic Field

The circular trajectory.


Since the magnetic force always remains perpendicular to the velocity, if a charged particle moves perpendicular to a uniform B-field its path will be circular. The magnitude of the force remains constant and it is directed toward the center of the circular path, i.e. it is the centripetal force for the motion. Centripetal Force

v2 Fc = m r v2 qvB = m r mv r= qB

FM = F c

Solve for r

Example. Find the radius of curvature for a fast electron with speed v = 2 x 107 m/s in a) the Earths magnetic field at the surface, and b) in a 10 T magnetic field.

a) BEarth ~ 0.5 gauss = 0.5 x 10-4 T r = mv/(qB) = (9.11 x 10-31)(2 x 107)/[(1.6 x 10-19)(0.5 x 10-4)] = 2.3 m

b) B = 10 T r = mv/(qB) = (9.11 x 10-31)(2 x 107)/[(1.6 x 10-19)(10)] = 1.1 x 10-5 m = 11 m

21.5 The Force on a Current in a Magnetic Field

A magnet force can be exerted on charged particle moving in a magnetic field. A magnetic force can also be exerted on a current of charged particles moving in a magnetic field, e.g. a current in a wire The magnetic force on the moving charges pushes the wire to the right. Use RHR-1 to find the direction of the force on a wire by putting the thumb in the direction of the velocity of moving positive charges, i.e. the thumb points in the direction of the conventional current.

21.5 The Force on a Current in a Magnetic Field

Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) propulsion for ships and submarines. MHD propulsion uses the principle of forces on charged currents in magnetic fields. As water is expelled from the rear of the ship by the magnetic force, Newtons 3rd law causes the ship to recoil forward with the same force. Has promise to be a low-noise, reliable and inexpensive system.

21.6 The Torque on a Current-Carrying Coil

First, consider the forces on a current-carrying loop in a magnetic field: The two forces on the loop have equal magnitude but an application of RHR-1 shows that they are opposite in direction.

How a dc motor works.

When a current exists in the coil, the coil experiences a torque.

Because of its inertia, the coil continues to rotate when there is no current.
