Chapter 9, Problem 5P

The force on a magnetic moment μz in a nonuniform magnetic field Bz is given by

F z = μ z d B z d z

If a beam of silver atoms travels a horizontal distance of 1 m through such a field and each atom has a speed of 100 m/s, how strong must the field gradient dBz/dz be in order to deflect the beam 1 mm?

The density of charge carriers for copper is 8.47 × 1028 electrons per cubic meter. What will be the Hall voltage reading from a probe made up of 3 cm × 2 cm × 1 cm (L × W × T) copper plate when a current of 1.5 A is passed through it in a magnetic field of 2.5 T perpendicular to the 3 cm × 2 cm.
In the figure, an electron accelerated from rest through potential difference V₁-1.10 kV enters the gap between two parallel plates having separation d = 25.7 mm and potential difference V₂= 104 V. The lower plate is at the lower potential. Neglect fringing and assume that the electron's velocity vector is perpendicular to the electric field vector between the plates. In unit-vector notation, what uniform magnetic field allows the electron to travel in a straight line in the gap? h Number ( i î+ i d V₂ k) Units
