A charge is passing through a static magnetic field. The speed of the charge does not change as it passes through the field

A charge is passing through a static magnetic field. The speed of the charge does not change as it passes through the field. True of False?

Expert Solution

 

It is true because In a magnetic field a moving charge always experiences a force perpendicular to its direction of motion so it moves in a circular path with constant speed but does not change its speed.

The photogates in the experiment are used to determine the speed of the gliders passing through. The photogates measure the time it takes for the photogate beam to go from being unblocked to blocked to unblocked again. You tell the photogate how long your glider is, and the speed is then calculated. Given the description of what the photogates do, how will you determine the velocity of the glider?
