Here we have given that,
Charge q = 500 uC
Velocity v = 66 × 10^3 cm/s = 660m/s
Magnetic field B = 80 uT
Magnetic force over the aircraft will be as,
F = qvB sin(theta) .........1
Here theta is 90°
So that F = qvB = 2.64 × 10^-8 N
Which is quite negligible .
Now when the aircraft is flying in the same direction of the magnetic field then,
Angle between velocity and the magnetic field will be zero so that
Sin0 = 0
Hence F = qvB × 0 = 0
Which means now no magnetic force will be experienced by aircraft.
So there when aircraft is moving in the same direction of the magnetic field then
Angle between velocity and magnetic field is 0°
So in this case force will be 0
And when the velocity will make 90° with the magnetic field then this will make the force maximum over the aircraft.
Now in the next case ,
as we know here that the charges are moving only due to the magnetic field so if they are at rest means there would not be any magnetic field hence no velocity of the charge hence zero or no force will be there over the aircraft.
Means here v= 0
So F = 0
But if there is any magnetic field then charges automatically comes into velocity and force experienced by the aircraft .
