Question

You observe an electron moving on your screen in a clockwise circle of radius 6.12 cm, at a constant speed of 6.27 x 10^6 m/s. Suppose that the electrons circular motion is due to the presence of a uniform magnetic field. 

For this situation above, what is the direction of the magnetic field?

   

Out of the screen (toward you)

   

Into the screen (away from you)

   

Right

   

Left

Step 1

To determine the magnatic field,

r=mvqBB=mvqrB=9.1×10-31×6.27×1061.6×10-19×0.0612B=582.7 ×10-6 T
