Serway PSE Quick Ch29

1) The document summarizes key concepts from a chapter on magnetic fields in a physics textbook, including how magnetic fields interact with charged particles and currents. 2) Key points covered include that a magnetic force is exerted on a moving charged particle in a magnetic field, with the force being greatest when the particle's velocity is perpendicular to the field. Magnetic fields can cause charged particles and electric currents to experience forces and to travel in circular paths. 3) The chapter also discusses how mass spectrometers use magnetic fields to separate particles of different m/q ratios, with particles of greater m/q ratios traveling in larger circular paths through the magnetic field.

The magnetic force exerted by a magnetic field


on a charge is proportional to the charges
velocity relative to the field. If the charge is
stationary, as in this situation, there is no
magnetic force.

A charged particle moves with velocity v in a


magnetic field B. The magnetic force on the particle
is a maximum when v is

parallel to B

perpendicular to B

The four wires shown below all carry the same current from point A to
point B through the same magnetic field. In all four parts of the figure,
the points A and B are 10 cm apart. Which of the following ranks wires

(a), (b) = (c), (d). The magnitude of the force


depends on the value of sin . The maximum force
occurs when the wire is perpendicular to the field
(a), and there is zero force when the wire is parallel
(d). Choices (2) and (3) represent the same force
because Case 1 tells us that a straight wire
between A and B will have the same force on it as
the curved wire.

A wire carries current in the plane of this paper

magnetic force toward the right edge of the page.

Use the right-hand rule to determine the

Because all loops enclose the same area and

the same for all. For part (c) in the image,
points upward and is perpendicular to the
magnetic field and = B, the maximum torque

direction of B and the torque is zero. For (b), the
torque is intermediate between zero and the
maximum value.

A charged particle is moving perpendicular to a magnetic field


in a circle with a radius r. An identical particle enters the field,
with v perpendicular to B, but with a higher speed v than the
first particle. Compared to the radius of the circle for the first
particle, the radius of the circle for the second particle is

The magnetic force on the particle


increases in proportion to v, but the
centripetal acceleration increases
according to the square of v. The result is
a larger radius, as we can see from
Equation 29.13.

Three types of particles enter a mass spectrometer like the

We cannot determine individual masses or charges,


but we can rank the particles by m/q ratio. Equation
29.18 indicates that those particles traveling through
the circle of greatest radius have the greatest m/q
ratio.
