Physics Aviary: Practice Problems: Mass of Particle in Magnetic Field

Determine the charge on a pith ball that is suspended in an electric field.

Learners investigate moving charges in magnetic fields. Some topics explored in the activities are Lorentz force, motion of a charge, and magnetic fields. The resource consists of video clips, lecture notes, online textbook chapters,...

Determine the mass and speed of a particle being fired through variable magnetic and electric fields. This problem is done after students determine the charge of an electron using the Millikan Oil Drop Experiment.

Determine the mass of two different isotopes of an element based on their deflection by a magnetic field.

Find the force and the direction of the force on a charged particle moving through a magnetic field.

Determine the total energy stored on a group of capacitors in a combination circuit.

Determine the total energy stored on a group of capacitors in a combination circuit.

In this interactive tutorial students will explore magnetic force. Students will observe interactions of magnets and study magnetic fields. The source of magnetic properties is believed to be moving charge. Since moving charge produces...

Class members use a compass and several points to map out the magnetic field of a magnet. Pairs trace the magnetic field lines produced by a permanent magnet by positioning the compass in numerous spots around the magnet to view the...

Your advanced physics class will appreciate this lesson in which they use magnetic field sensors to determine the relationship between the number of turns per meter of a solenoid and the magnetic field produced. The materials for this...
