1 A velocity selector consists of magnetic and electric fields
A velocity selector consists of magnetic and electric fields. The magnetic field is described by the expression If B = T find the magnitude and direction of such that an electron with 750 eV kinetic energy moves along the positive x-axis undeflected. B FB - v must be in the +z direction, so must be in the –z direction (because the charge on the electron is negative. must be in the +z direction, so must be in the –z direction (because the charge on the electron is negative. FE x y z E

A velocity selector consists of magnetic and electric fields. The magnetic field is described by the expression If B = T find the magnitude and direction of such that an electron with 750 eV kinetic energy moves along the positive x-axis undeflected. B FB - v FE x y z E

3 A velocity selector consists of magnetic and electric fields
A velocity selector consists of magnetic and electric fields. The magnetic field is described by the expression If B = T find the magnitude and direction of such that an electron with 750 eV kinetic energy moves along the positive x-axis undeflected. don’t forget to convert eV to J B FB - v FE x y z E this is speed in m/s; getting close to relativistic electron mass is on OSE sheet

4 A velocity selector consists of magnetic and electric fields
A velocity selector consists of magnetic and electric fields. The magnetic field is described by the expression If B = T find the magnitude and direction of such that an electron with 750 eV kinetic energy moves along the positive x-axis undeflected. Problem asks for magnitude and direction, so B FB - v FE x y z E Also “legal:”
