The magnetic force is q(v x B) = ~q(E/B)B2 = ~gE, which exacily cancels the electric force; since there is no net force, the particle moves in a straight line at constant speed. 7 (b) Assuming it starts from the origin, so Cy = ~Ci, Cy = —Cp, we have £(0) = 0 > C, = 0 > C; =0; aft) = se psin(ot) + Be, 2) =~ coslot) + 3, of | y(t) = a ut —sinfut]s z(t) = 5 east) | Let a = £/tus, Then y(t) = Blut ~ sin(ut)};_2()= BIL ~ coswt)]; w= Rat) = Szeto | BVH ~Becostut) -> (y — 2But)? + (z — 8)? = 8".

The force on the left side (toward the left) cancels the force on the right side (toward, the right); the force on the top is JaB = Iak(a/2) Tka? /2, (pointing upward), and the force on the bottom is IaB = —Tka*/2 (also upward). So the net force is F =[Thot, Problem 5.5 because the length-perpendicular-to-flow is the circumference. a [ feteas= tna [ds tron > 0 53 = ersind} [J = pursind d,| where p = Q/(4/3)xR® Problem 5.7 dp dt says V+ (23 2 pete f (Se) rere ~ few str tr he otis ent.
