Learning Goal: To understand why charged particles move in circles perpendicular to a magnetic field and why the frequency is an invariant. A particle of charge q and mass m moves in a region of space where there is a uniform magnetic field B⃗ =B0k^(i.e., a magnetic field of magnitude B0 in the +z direction). (Figure 1) In this problem, neglect any forces on the particle other than the magnetic force. Part D If the resulting trajectory of the charged particle...

MY NOTES Three types of charged particles, lets call them A, B, and C, are accelerated and then pass through a velocity selector so that we know they have the same velocity, moving to the right. They then enter a region where the magnetic field is pointing into the paper. Particles A and B are deflected upwards, as shown, while particle C is deflected downwards. The paths of the charges in the field are arcs of circles with the radii...
