Answer:
0.16T
Explanation:
Answer:
B=0.15T
Explanation:
In a magnetic field we have that the force generated by the magnetic field equals the centripetal force
Fm=qvB=mv^2/r
Hence, this problem can be solved using the expression that relates the radius of a curved path described by a particle and a magnetic field
mp: mass of a proton = 1.67*10^{-27}kg
qp: charge of the proton = 1.6*10^{-19}C
r: radius = 0.20m
v: speed of the proton = 3*10^{6}m/s
– By replacing in the expression we have
Hope this helps!!
