where
m = 9.11 * 10^-31 kg
q = 1.60* 10^-19 Coulombs
(1/2) m v^2 = q * 5.2 * 10^3
solve for v
R = 0.04 meters
for circle force= mass * centripetal acceleration
|q| v B = m v^2 / R
so
B = m v / (q R)
m = 9.11 * 10^-31 kg
q = 1.60* 10^-19 Coulombs
(1/2) m v^2 = q * 5.2 * 10^3
solve for v
R = 0.04 meters
for circle force= mass * centripetal acceleration
|q| v B = m v^2 / R
so
B = m v / (q R)
