At a certain point on Earth's surface in the southern hemisphere, the magnetic field has a magnitude of 4.97x10-5T and points upward and toward the north at an angle 55º above the horizontal. A cosmic ray muon with the same charge as an electron and a mass of 1.9x10-28 kg is moving directly down toward Earth's surface wiht a speed of 5.68x107 m/s. What is the Force on the muon?
there would be two forces acting on the muon
first,
gravitational force towards the center of earth =
1.9*10-28*10 = 1.9*10-27 N
second magnetic force
Force on proton, F = q(v × B)
F = qvB*cos
use cos instead of sin, this is because the perpendicular component of magnetic field is used and to calculate perpendicular component
here given:
the magnitude of magmetic field B =4.97*10-5T
charge of the cosmic ray muon q =1.60*10-19C
speed of cosmic ray muon v = 5.68*107m/s
= 1.60*10-19
*5.68*107*4.97*10-5*cos(55) =
2.59*10-16 N
as gravitation force is much lesser than magnetic force we can
ignore that..
so magnitude of force is 2.59*10-16 N
