Question
Refer to the previous problem. Suppose, the goldsmith argues that he has not mixed copper or any other material with gold, rather some cavities might have been left inside the ornament. Calculate the volume of the cavities left that will allow the weights given in that problem.

Answer

Let the volume of the cavities be v,

The total volume of the ornament V = volume of gold + volume of cavities

$=\frac{36}{19.3}+\text{V}\ \text{cm}^3$

The volume of the water displaced is also $Vcm^3$

The mass of the water displaced $=\text{V}\times1\text{gram}=\text{V}\text{gram}$

The weight of the water displaced = Vg

Hence Vg = (36 - 34)g

$\Rightarrow\text{V}=2$

$\Rightarrow\frac{36}{19.3} +\text{v}=2$

$\Rightarrow\text{V}=2-\frac{36}{19.3}=2-1.865$

$\Rightarrow\text{V}=0.135\text{cm}^3$

The path of a charged particle in magnetic field depends upon angle between velocity and magnetic field. If velocity $\vec{\text{v}}$ is at angle $\theta$ to $\vec{\text{B}},$ component of velocity parallel to magnetic field $(\text{v}\cos\theta)$ remains constant and component of velocity perpendicular to magnetic field $(\text{v}\sin\theta)$ is responsible for circular motion, thus the charge particle moves in a helical path.

The plane of the circle is perpendicular to the magnetic field and the axis of the helix is parallel to the magnetic field. The charged particle moves along helical path touching the line parallel to the magnetic field passing through the starting point after each rotation. Radius of circular path is $\text{r}=\frac{\text{mv}\sin\theta}{\text{qB}}$ Hence the resultant path of the charged particle will be a helix, with its axis along the direction of $\vec{\text{B}}$ as shown in figure.
