Singly charged magnesium (A=24) ions are accelerated to kinetic energy `2 ke V` and are projected perpendicularly into a magnetic field B of magnitude 0.6 T. (a) Find the radius of the circle formed by the ions. (b) If there are also singly charged ions of the isotope magnesium-26, what would be the radius for these particles?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The radius is given by
`r = (mv)/(qB)=sqrt(2mK)/(qB)` for `^24Mg ions, m=24Xm =24Xm_q` approximately and
`q=1.6 xx 10^(-19)C.` Putting the values, `r= sqrt(2X24X1.67X10^(-27)kgX2000X1.6 X10^(-19) J)/(1.6xx10^(-19)Cxx0.6 T)`
=0.53 m = 5.3cm
. For `^26mg,` the radius r will be given by
`r = sqrt(2m'K)/(qB)`
or `r =rsqrt(m)/(m) = 5.3cm sqrt(26)/(24) = 5.5cm.`

An accelration produces a narrow beam of protons, each having an initial speed of v_(0) . The beam is directed towards an initially uncharges distant metal sphere of radius R and centered at point O. The initial path of the beam is parallel to the axis of the sphere at a distance of (R//2) from the axis, as indicated in the diagram. The protons in the beam that collide with the sphere will cause it to becomes charged. The subsequentpotential field at the accelerator due to the sphere can be neglected. The angular momentum of a particle is defined in a similar way to the moment of a force. It is defined as the moment of its linear momentum, linear replacing the force.
