Created by StemPy LabA long vertical wire in a laboratory carries a current upward. The Earth's magnetic field near it points horizontally towards the north. In which direction is the force on the wire?
← All Quizzes
← Assertion (A): A magnetic field can change the direction of the velocity of a charged particle but not its speed. Reason (R): The magnetic force on a moving charge is always at right angles to its velocity.Assertion (A): A simple cyclotron is not used to accelerate electrons to very high energy. Reason (R): As an electron gets near the speed of light its mass grows, so its time for a turn changes and it falls out of step. →
