Two charged particles with opposite signs but the same magnitude of charge enter a magnetic field that is
perpendicular to their direction of motion. How will the motion of the two particles differ when they enter the magnetic field?

Explanation:

If θ=90°, the force acting on the particle is the maximum possible and the direction of the force is perpendicular to the path of the particle. The particle then moves along a circular path with the force acting as the centripetal force.

The magnetic field does no work, so the kinetic energy and speed of a charged particle in a magnetic field remain constant. The magnetic force, acting perpendicular to the velocity of the particle, will cause circular motion.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
