Is it possible to set up a scenario where the trajectory of a charged particle in a constant magnetic field is something other than a circle (some other spiraley thing)? Why or why not? How would we do it, and what would the trajectory look like?

A charged particle of charge 4.2 mC and mass 4.7 g is subjected to a magnetic field of 4.6 T, which acts at a right angle to its motion. Due to the magnetic field, the particle moves in a circle. What is the angular speed (ω ) of the particle (in rad/s)? Round off to TWO decimal places. [Hint: look for the relationship between v and ω]

A charged particle moves uniformly through some region of space, meaning it travels at a constant velocity. From this information, can we rule out the presence of an electric field within this region? Why or why not? Can we rule out the presence of a magnetic field within this region? Why or why not?

A negatively charged particle (m=7x10^-27kg and q=-1.6x10^-19C) enters a velocity selector where the electric field is upward and 12,000 V/m. The magnetic field has a magnitude of 5 milliTesla. 1.) What is the speed of the particle? 2.) What is the direction of the B1 field? 3.) If it enters a second magnetic field B2=0.4 Tesla, directed into the page, what is the radius of the path? Start from Fc=mv^2/r = Fe 4.) Does it bend clockwise or counterclockwise?

This is not for an assignment, but for my own understanding and I was wondering if anyone would be able to assist me with understanding. Consider a non-trivial trajectory where the velocity & acceleration of some charged particle are non-zero. If i were wanting to plot the electric and magnetic field, how would I go about making the equation to do so? Would you be able to give me an example? If I wanted to convert a 2 dimensional plot...

1) A charged particle leaves a potential difference with a speed of 1221 m/s headed East. The particle then enters a uniform magnetic field directed into the page with magnitude 42.42T. When the particle enters the uniform field, it undergoes a specific type of motion, of which begins turning the particle toward the south. (a) Draw and fully label a diagram of the situation described above, including the motion of the particle inside the B-field. (b) Once the particle enters...

Analyze and answer the following questions: 1- The magnetic force on a charged particle is perpendicular to the speed ?⃗ it moves with, so it is said that, in this case, the magnetic force does no work over the charged particle. Explain this statement. 2- Does a magnetic force acting on the moving part of a circuit do work? Justify your statement with an example and the respective equations 3- Build an example, with feasible data, of the magnetic force...

This problem set will look at why the magnetic balls rolled slowly down the metal surfaces...This scenario is slightly different, but makes the math easier! A square loop is cut out of a thick sheet of aluminum. It is then placed so that the top half is in a uniform magnetic field B (say 1T), and allowed to fall under gravity. (The first part of this problem requires you to set up dimensions.)   If the magnetic field is B, what...

To use a mass spectrometer we first need to ionize the incoming particles, so we do the following. First there is a particle of known charge q = 2 |e|, entering the left side of the velocity selector, which has a voltage of 884V between the plates, a plate separation of d = 1cm, and a magnetic field of Bin = 2T. This particle then enters the region of a second magnetic field of B0,in = 0.5T, and moves in...
