What uniform magnetic field applied perpendicular to a beam of electrons moving at \( 1.3 \times 10^6 \text{ m/s} \) is required to make the electrons travel in a circular arc of radius 0.35 m?

  1. A \( 2.1 \times 10^{-5} \text{ T} \)
  2. B \( 2.1 \times 10^{-4} \text{ T} \)
  3. C \( 1.2 \times 10^{-5} \text{ T} \)
  4. D \( 1.2 \times 10^{-4} \text{ T} \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \( 2.1 \times 10^{-5} \text{ T} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( B = \frac{mv}{qr} \) \( B = \frac{(9.11 \times 10^{-31} \text{ kg})(1.3 \times 10^6 \text{ m/s})}{(1.60 \times 10^{-19} \text{ C})(0.35 \text{ m})} \) \( B \approx 2.11 \times 10^{-5} \text{ T} \)
