Question

1. A 2 C charge moving at 15 m/s enters into a magnetic field of strength 8

T. What is the maximum force experienced by this charge? *

Answer 1

Maximum force on the charge is 240 N

Step-by-step explanation:

We have given charge q = 2C

Speed of the charge v = 15 m/sec

Magnetic field B = 8 T

It is known that magnetic force on the moving charge is given by

`F=qvBsin\Theta`

Maximum force will be equal to

`F=qvB`

`F=2* 15* 8=240N`

Therefore maximum force on the charge is 240 N
