Q.
A beam of light travelling along x-axis is described by the electric field Ey=(600Vm−1)sinω(t−x/c) then maximum magnetic force on a charge. q=2e, moving along y-axis with a speed of 3.0×107ms−1 is (e=1.6×10−19C)
Maximum magnetic field is given by B0=cE0
Here, E0=600Vm−1 c=3×108m/s ∴B0=3×108600 =2×10−6T
Maximum magnetic force imposed on given charge is Fm=qvB0=2evB0 =2×1.6×10−19×3×107×2×10−6 =1.92×10−17N
