JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 8. Electromagnetic waves

An electron is constrained to move along the \(y-\)axis with a speed of \(0.1\, c\) (c is the speed of light) in the presence of electromagnetic wave, whose electric field is \(\overrightarrow{ E }=30 \hat{ j } \sin \left(1.5 \times 10^{7} t -5 \times 10^{-2} x \right)\, V / m\) The maximum magnetic force experienced by the electron will be: (given \(c=3 \times 10^{8}\, ms ^{-1}\) and electron charge \(\left.=1.6 \times 10^{-19} C \right)\)

  1. A \(1.6 \times 10^{-19} N\)
  2. B \(4.8 \times 10^{-19} N\)
  3. C \(3.2 \times 10^{-18} N\)
  4. D \(2.4 \times 10^{-18} N\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(4.8 \times 10^{-19} N\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\Rightarrow E =\overrightarrow{ E }=30 \hat{ j } \sin \left(1.5 \times 10^{7} t -5 \times 10^{-2} x \right) V / m\) \(\Rightarrow B \Rightarrow E / V \Rightarrow \frac{30}{1.5 \times 10^{7}} \times 5 \times 10^{-2}\) \(\Rightarrow 10^{-7}\) Tesla…
