Choi · Answer 1

E. is described by all of these

Explanation:

Magnetic fields exert forces on a moving charged particle. The direction of the magnetic force on a moving charged particle is perpendicular to the plane formed by the velocity v and magnetic field B and follows right hand rule. The magnitude of the force is proportional to charge q, velocity v, and magnetic field strength B, and the sine of the angle between v and B.

Cristina Mitchell · Answer 2

E) is described by all of these

Explanation:

The magnetic force on a charged particle is expressed as:

F = qv * B = qvBsinθ

Where,

q = charge on particle

θ = angle between the magnetic field and the particle velocity.

v = velocity of the particle

B = magnitude of field vector

From here, we could denote that magnetic force, F depends on charge on particle, velocity of particle, magnitude of field vector.

The magnetic force on a charged particle is at right angles to both the velocity of the particle. The magnetic force and magnetic field in a charged particle are perpendicular to each other, the right hand rule is used to determine the direction of force.

The correct option is E.
