As a charged particle 'q' moving with a ...

As a charged particle 'q' moving with a velocity `vec(v)` enters a uniform magnetic field `vec(B)`, it experience a force `vec(F) = q(vec(v) xx vec(B)). For theta = 0^(@) or 180^(@), theta` being the angle between `vec(v) and vec(B)`, force experienced is zero and the particle passes undeflected. For `theta = 90^(@)`, the particle moves along a circular arc and the magnetic force (qvB) provides the necessary centripetal force `(mv^(2)//r)`. For other values of `theta (theta !=0^(@), 180^(@), 90^(@))`, the charged particle moves along a helical path which is the resultant motion of simultaneous circular and translational motions.
Suppose a particle that carries a charge of magnitude q and has a mass `4 xx 10^(-15)` kg is moving in a region containing a uniform magnetic field `vec(B) = -0.4 hat(k) T`. At some instant, velocity of the particle is `vec(v) = (8 hat(i) - 6 hat(j) 4 hat(k)) xx 10^(6) m s^(-1)` and force acting on it has a magnitude 1.6 N
If the coordinates of the particle at t = 0 are (2 m, 1 m, 0), coordinates at a time t = 3 T, where T is the time period of circular component of motion. will be (take `pi = 3.14`)

The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Given Values - Charge of the particle: \( q \) (unknown) - Mass of the particle: \( m = 4 \times 10^{-15} \) kg - Magnetic field: \( \vec{B} = -0.4 \hat{k} \) T - Velocity of the particle: \( \vec{v} = (8 \hat{i} - 6 \hat{j} + 4 \hat{k}) \times 10^6 \) m/s - Magnitude of the force: \( F = 1.6 \) N - Initial coordinates: \( (x_0, y_0, z_0) = (2 \text{ m}, 1 \text{ m}, 0) \) - Time: \( t = 3T \) where \( T \) is the time period of circular motion. ### Step 2: Calculate the Cross Product \( \vec{v} \times \vec{B} \) Using the formula for the magnetic force: \[ \vec{F} = q (\vec{v} \times \vec{B}) \] First, we need to compute \( \vec{v} \times \vec{B} \): \[ \vec{v} = (8 \hat{i} - 6 \hat{j} + 4 \hat{k}) \times 10^6 \] \[ \vec{B} = -0.4 \hat{k} \] The cross product is calculated using the determinant: \[ \begin{vmatrix} \hat{i} & \hat{j} & \hat{k} \\ 8 \times 10^6 & -6 \times 10^6 & 4 \times 10^6 \\ 0 & 0 & -0.4 \end{vmatrix} \] Calculating this determinant: \[ = \hat{i} \left((-6 \times 10^6)(-0.4) - (4 \times 10^6)(0)\right) - \hat{j} \left((8 \times 10^6)(-0.4) - (4 \times 10^6)(0)\right) + \hat{k} \left((8 \times 10^6)(0) - (-6 \times 10^6)(0)\right) \] \[ = \hat{i} (2.4 \times 10^6) + \hat{j} (3.2 \times 10^6) + 0 \] Thus, \[ \vec{v} \times \vec{B} = (2.4 \hat{i} + 3.2 \hat{j}) \times 10^6 \] ### Step 3: Calculate the Magnitude of \( \vec{v} \times \vec{B} \) The magnitude is given by: \[ |\vec{v} \times \vec{B}| = \sqrt{(2.4 \times 10^6)^2 + (3.2 \times 10^6)^2} \] Calculating this: \[ = \sqrt{(5.76 \times 10^{12}) + (10.24 \times 10^{12})} = \sqrt{16 \times 10^{12}} = 4 \times 10^6 \] ### Step 4: Solve for Charge \( q \) Using the force equation: \[ F = q |\vec{v} \times \vec{B}| \] Substituting the known values: \[ 1.6 = q (4 \times 10^6) \] Thus, \[ q = \frac{1.6}{4 \times 10^6} = 0.4 \times 10^{-6} \text{ C} \] ### Step 5: Calculate Angular Frequency \( \omega \) Using the formula: \[ \omega = \frac{qB}{m} \] Substituting the values: \[ \omega = \frac{(0.4 \times 10^{-6})(0.4)}{4 \times 10^{-15}} = \frac{0.16 \times 10^{-6}}{4 \times 10^{-15}} = 4 \times 10^7 \text{ rad/s} \] ### Step 6: Calculate the Time Period \( T \) The time period \( T \) is given by: \[ T = \frac{2\pi}{\omega} = \frac{2\pi}{4 \times 10^7} \approx \frac{6.28}{4 \times 10^7} \approx 1.57 \times 10^{-8} \text{ s} \] ### Step 7: Calculate the Distance Travelled in the Z-Direction The velocity in the z-direction is \( 4 \times 10^6 \) m/s. The distance travelled in the z-direction in time \( t = 3T \): \[ \text{Distance} = v_z \times t = 4 \times 10^6 \times (3 \times 1.57 \times 10^{-8}) \approx 0.1884 \text{ m} \] ### Step 8: Find the New Coordinates The new coordinates after time \( t = 3T \): \[ (x, y, z) = (2, 1, 0 + 0.1884) = (2, 1, 0.1884) \] ### Final Answer The coordinates of the particle at \( t = 3T \) are: \[ (2 \text{ m}, 1 \text{ m}, 0.1884 \text{ m}) \]

To solve the problem, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the Given Values - Charge of the particle: \( q \) (unknown) - Mass of the particle: \( m = 4 \times 10^{-15} \) kg - Magnetic field: \( \vec{B} = -0.4 \hat{k} \) T - Velocity of the particle: \( \vec{v} = (8 \hat{i} - 6 \hat{j} + 4 \hat{k}) \times 10^6 \) m/s - Magnitude of the force: \( F = 1.6 \) N ...
