MAGNETIC FIELDS AND FORCES
Question 96
A charge of 12.0 µC, travelling with a speed of 9.00 × 106 ms−1 in a direction perpendicular
to a magnetic field, experiences a magnetic force of 8.70 × 10−3 N. Calculate the magnitude
of the magnetic field.
The magnitudes of the magnetic field B and the magnetic force F are related by
F = |q|vB sin θ

∴B =

Question 97

magnetic field of 5.60 × 10−5 T, experiences a force of 2.00 × 10−4 N. Calculate the magnitude
of the particle’s charge.

Question 98
Particles 1, 2 and 3 follow the paths shown below as they pass through a magnetic field.
What can one conclude about each particle?
Since particle 2’s trajectory is unchanged, it must be a neutral particle. The paths of particles
1 and 3 is affected by the magnetic field, and by the right-hand rule it can be seen that 1
must be a negatively charged particle, while 3 is positively charged.
Question 99
Three particles have identical charges and masses. They enter a uniform magnetic field and
follow the paths shown below. Which particle is moving the fastest and which is moving the
slowest? Justify your answers.
The force is given by
F = |q|vB sin θ
and since q, B and sin θ are the same for each particle, then F ∝ v. Also, the resultant force
in circular motion is
v2
F =
r
so that v ∝ r, since the particles have the same mass. Particle 2’s trajectory has the smallest
r and so it has the smallest v. Particle 1 has the largest v.
Question 100
A wire 1.0 m long carries a current of 10 A and makes an angle of 30° with a uniform magnetic field with B = 1.5 T. Calculate the magnitude and direction of the force on the wire.
F = BIl sin θ = (1.5) × (10) × (1) × sin 30° = 7.5 N
F is perpendicular to B and the wire.

Question 104
Determine the magnetic field midway between two long straight wires 10 cm apart if one
carries 10 A and the other 8.0 A and these currents are
(a) in the same direction, and
(b) in opposite directions.
(a) The magnetic field is additive. Midway between the wires, the fields are either in the
same direction or in the opposite direction. Let both wires carry current out of the
plane of the paper.

Question 106
Calculate the magnitude and direction of the force between two parallel wires 85.0 m long
and 30.0 cm apart, each carrying 60.0 A in the same direction.
The force on a current carrying wire in a magnetic field is F = BIl sin θ. Here, magnetic
field is due to the other wire, and the angle is 90°. Hence

The wires carry current in the same direction so the force is attractive.
Question 107
A vertical, straight wire carrying 5.0 A exerts an attractive force per unit length 6.0 ×
10−4 N m−1 on a second, parallel wire 8.0 cm away. What current (magnitude and direction)
flows in the second wire?
The force is attractive therefore the second wire carries current in the same direction as
the first.
