Force on a Current-Carrying Conductor problem 19


A proton jet moving at a speed of enters a homogeneous magnetic field with a density of . The jet enters at an angle to the field force lines. Calculate the radius and pitch of the helical path along which the protons travel through the magnetic field. The mass of a proton is and the charge is .
