An electron vacuum moves in a circle of radius 23 cm, if the electron velocity is 0.95c(speed of light), what must be the force acting on it in newtons?
Here, massobserved = 9.11 * 10-31/sqrt(1 - 0.952)
= 29.175 * 10-31 kg
radiusobserved = 23 * sqrt(1 - 0.952)
= 7.181 cm
As, the force acting on it = mv2/r
= (29.175 * 10-31 * 0.95 * 0.95 * 3 * 108 * 3 * 108)/(0.07181)
= 3.3 * 10-12 N
