A semi-circular loop consisting of one turn of wire is place in the x-y plane. A constant magnetic field B=1.7T points along the negative z-axis(into the page), and a current I=0.7A flows counterclockwisefrom the positive z-axis. The net magnetic force on the circular section of the loop points in what direction? What is the net magnetice force on the circular section of the loop?

Cyclotrons are widely used in nuclear medicine for producing short-lived radioactive isotopes. these cyclotrons typically accelerate h- (the hydride ion, which has one proton and two electrons) to an energy of 5 mev to 20 mev. this ion has a mass very close to that of a proton because the electron mass is negligible—about 1 2000 of the proton’s mass. a typical magnetic field in such cyclotrons is 1.9 t. (a) what is the speed of a 5.0-mev h-? (b) if the h- has energy 5.0 mev and b = 1.9 t, what is the radius of this ion’s circular orbit?
