Complete question:

A charge of 15C is moving with velocity of 6.2 x 10³ m/s which makes an angle of 48 degrees with respect to the magnetic field. If the force on the particle is 4838 N, find the magnitude of the magnetic field.

a. 0.06 T

b. 0.08 T

c. 0.07 T

d. 0.05 T

The magnitude of the magnetic field is 0.07 T.

Explanation:

Given;

magnitude of the charge, q = 15C

velocity of the charge, v = 6.2 x 10³ m/s

angle between the charge and the magnetic field, θ = 48°

the force on the particle, F = 4838 N

The magnitude of the magnetic field can be calculated by applying Lorentz force formula;

F = qvBsinθ

where;

B is the magnitude of the magnetic field

B = F / vqsinθ

B = (4838) / (6.2 x 10³ x 15 x sin48)

B = 0.07 T

Therefore, the magnitude of the magnetic field is 0.07 T.
