27 Motion of Charged Particles in a Magnetic Field
• In the presence of electric field, the electrons experience
electric forces and drift slowly in the opposite direction of the
electric field at the drift velocity.• The drift velocity (~10–5 m s–1) of free electrons is extremely
small compared with their mean speed (~106 m s–1).

• The current I carried by a conductor can be expressed as
where n is the number of free charge carriers per unit volume;
A is the cross-sectional area of the conductor;
v is the drift velocity of the charge carriers;
Q is the charge carried by the charge carriers.

27.2 Magnetic force on a moving charge
• The magnetic force F on a moving charged particle with a
velocity v in a magnetic field B at an angle is given by
F = BQv sin
The direction of the force can be determined by Fleming’s left hand rule.

• In a mass spectrometer, the radii of the semi-circular paths
taken by the charged particles depend on their charge to
mass ratios, so that different particles can be separated and
identified.

Recall that the radius r of the circular path is given by
The radius r differs if the charge to mass ratios (Q / m) differs.

27.3 Hall effect
• When a current passes through a conductor placed in a unifo
rm magnetic field, each of the charge carriers experiences a
magnetic force and deflects to the surfaces.

27 Motion of Charged Particles in a Magnetic Field
• The deflection of the moving charged carriers leads to
– an excess of positive (or negative) charge carriers on the
upper surface, and
– a deficiency of positive (or negative) charge carriers on
the lower surface.

• A p.d. is developed across the conductor due to the deflected
charge carriers.• Each charge carrier moving in the conductor experiences an
electric force that opposes the magnetic force on it.• These two forces balance each other in the steady state.
