Question

Write the expression for the magnetic force acting on a charged particle moving with velocity n in the presence of magnetic field B. A neutron, an electron and an alpha particle moving with equal velocities, enter a uniform magnetic field going into the plane of the paper as shown. Trace their paths in the field and justify your answer.

Answer

$\overrightarrow{\text{F}} = \text{q}(\overrightarrow{\text{v}}\times\overrightarrow{\text{B}})$
$\text{F}= \text{qvB}\sin\theta$ and Force (F) acts perpendicular to the plane containing $\overrightarrow{\text{v}} \text{and} \overrightarrow{\text{B}}$

Justification: Direction of force experienced by the particle will be according to the Fleming’s Left-hand rule.

A symmetric biconvex lens of radius of curvature $R$ and made of glass of refractive index $1·5,$ is placed on a layer of liquid placed on top of a plane mirror as shown in the figure. An optical needle with its tip on the principal axis of the lens is moved along the axis until its real, inverted image coincides with the needle itself. The distance of the needle from the lens is measured to be $x$. On removing the liquid layer and repeating the experiment, the distance is found to be $y$. Obtain the expression for the refractive index of the liquid in terms of $x$ and $y.$
