A proton is moving under the combined influence of an electric field (E = 2569 V/m) and a magnetic field (B = 2.45 T), as shown in the figure. Assuming the proton is moving in the direction shown in the figure with speed 255 m/s at the instant it enters the crossed fields, what is the acceleration of the proton? (units are in m/s^2)
A common way to focus a beam of charged particles is to use an electric field and a magnetic field together. Based on the relative strength and
orientation of the two fields, you can tune the Coulomb and Lorentz forces to direct the beam of particles. This technique is common in mass
spectrometers and scanning electron microscopes.

Many of the cosmic rays that make their way to the Earth are trapped by the Earths magnetic field and never reach the surface. These trapped cosmic rays are found in the Van Allen beltsdonut-shaped zones over the Earths equator (Fig. 30.34). These cosmic rays are mostly protons with energies of about 30 MeV. The inset in the figure shows a cosmic ray proton as it is about to enter the Earths magnetic field. The cosmic rays velocity is initially perpendicular to the field. Three students discuss what happens to the incoming cosmic ray. Decide which student or students are correct. Figure 30.34 The Van Allen belts are donut-shaped zones of trapped cosmic rays above the Earths surface. Inset: What happens to this cosmic ray as it enters the Earths magnetic field? Shannon: The velocity is perpendicular to the magnetic field, so the cosmic ray just passes through the field and hits the Earths atmosphere. Avi: What you are saying is that the magnetic field exerts no force on the cosmic ray. Actually, it exerts a huge force because the velocity is perpendicular to the magnetic field. The force will be into the page. Cameron: Avi is right. The cosmic ray proton is going to feel a huge magnetic force. Because it is positively charged, it will be pushed upward along the magnetic field lines. Shannon: I never said the force was zero. There is a force, but the force is perpendicular to the magnetic field lines. In this case, thats to the lefttoward the Earth. Avi: The force is perpendicular to the magnetic field, but it also has to be perpendicular to the velocity. Because B and v are both in the plane of the page, the force must be perpendicular to the page.arrow_forwardThe strengths of the fields in the velocity selector of a Bainbridge mass spectrometer are B = 0.500 T and E=1.2105 Van, and tire strength of the magnetic field that separates the ions is Bo=0.750 T.
