- The Hall affect is used to measure the carrier density of a thin sheet of electrons. When a current of 80.0 µA flows through the length of the electron sheet, which is 1.2-mm long, 0.27- mm wide and 12-nm thick, a magnetic field perpendicular to the sheet produces a potential difference of 0.53 mV across the width of the sheet. If the carrier density in the electron sheet is 6.74 x 1025 m-3, what is the magnitude of the magnetic field?arrow_forwardMammography is an x-ray imaging procedure for breast cancer diagnosis and screening. Assume that 20ke V x-ray is used in mammography. Also assume that the breast of a patient is 6 cm in thickness (soft tissue), and the propagation speed of x-ray photons in soft tissue is about the same as in vacuum. How long will it take for x- ray photons to travel through the breast?arrow_forwardHow many 890-nm photons does it take to have the same total energy as five 178-nm photons? ____photonsarrow_forward

The constant, uniform magnetic field B = 0.75 2 T acts as a filter curving the electrons to a small gap that only allows specific electron energies. The source of electrons enters the filter as a beam that is 15 micrometers in diameter and have a range of energies from 5-25 meV. The filter redirects the beam, as pictured, to the right v = và but does not speed them up. If the filter is to further narrow the range of energies from 5-25 meV to 10-12 meV, find the dimensions of the gap. In the picture, calculate ymin and ymer, both of which can be assumed to be equal to the radius of the paths taken within the magnetic field. %3D The beam being focused to 15 um at the start can be assumed to be a point source and take circular paths within the magnetic field.
