Question

Consider an electron moving to the right with some velocity: o ----->

A) What magnetic field would deflect this electron towards the top of the page? Explain logic.

B) Explain how you would use a bar magnet to deflect the electron as described in A.

C) Redraw the electron on paper. On the diagram, show how you would position a current-carrying loop of wire, relative to your electron, such that the electron was deflected as described in part A. Show direction of current in the loop. Explain logic for full credit. D) Again, redraw your electron on your paper. Show how you might position a long straight current-carrying wire, relative to your electron, such that the electron was deflected as described in part A. Show direction of current in the wire.
