The correct Answer is:
To find the value of the charge moving in a circular path, we can use the formula for the magnetic field produced by a point charge moving in a circular motion. The magnetic field \( B \) at the center of the circular path is given by: \[ B = \frac{\mu_0}{4\pi} \cdot \frac{q \cdot \omega}{r} \] Where: - \( B \) is the magnetic field at the center, - \( \mu_0 \) is the permeability of free space (\( 4\pi \times 10^{-7} \, \text{T m/A} \)), - \( q \) is the charge, - \( \omega \) is the angular frequency, - \( r \) is the radius of the circular path. ### Step 1: Write down the known values Given: - \( B = 3.8 \times 10^{-10} \, \text{T} \) - \( r = 10 \, \text{cm} = 0.1 \, \text{m} \) - \( \omega = 40\pi \, \text{rad/s} \) ### Step 2: Substitute the known values into the formula Substituting the known values into the magnetic field formula: \[ 3.8 \times 10^{-10} = \frac{(4\pi \times 10^{-7})}{4\pi} \cdot \frac{q \cdot (40\pi)}{0.1} \] ### Step 3: Simplify the equation The \( 4\pi \) terms cancel out: \[ 3.8 \times 10^{-10} = 10^{-7} \cdot \frac{q \cdot (40\pi)}{0.1} \] This simplifies to: \[ 3.8 \times 10^{-10} = 10^{-7} \cdot (400\pi q) \] ### Step 4: Isolate \( q \) Now, we can isolate \( q \): \[ q = \frac{3.8 \times 10^{-10}}{10^{-7} \cdot 400\pi} \] ### Step 5: Calculate \( q \) Calculating the right-hand side: \[ q = \frac{3.8 \times 10^{-10}}{4 \times 10^{-5} \cdot \pi} \] Using \( \pi \approx 3.14 \): \[ q \approx \frac{3.8 \times 10^{-10}}{1.256 \times 10^{-4}} \approx 3.02 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{C} \] ### Step 6: Round off the answer Rounding off, we find: \[ q \approx 3 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{C} \] ### Conclusion Thus, the value of the charge is: \[ \boxed{3 \times 10^{-6} \, \text{C}} \]
