The Lorentz force, F = q(v x B), where q = electric charge, v = velocity of the charge particle, and B = magnetic field.
The direction of the charge particle is determined by v. F, v, and B are vectors, and follow the right-hand rule. First, point your right arm straight in the direction the particle is traveling, palm/hand flat with the thumb pointing at a right angle to the other 4 fingers; second, curl your right hand (bend at the wrist) toward where the magnetic field is pointing. The thumb indicates the direction of the force.
For example, assume the magnetic field is pointing perpendicularly out of this page (a plane) toward you. Assume the charge particle carries a positive charge and is traveling up the page in the beginning. Then the force acts on the particle as a centripetal force and pulls the particle toward the right. The net result is that, in an ideal situation, the particle rotates in a clockwise direction on the plane. A negative particle will do so in a counterclockwise fashion.
The electron has a permanent magnetic field at rest, it clearly has a magnetic field because it is always moving and a moving charge has a magnetic field.
In the same manner, the proton also has a natural and permanent electromagnetic field since it has a Magnetic Moment.The electron and the proton are in continuous motion, both on their own axes and around each other.This is the reason , why electrons and protons are deflected in magnetic field.
And, this is also the reason the orbit of the electron does not decay.
Yes - it has the same charge, but roughly 2000 times less mass.
Atoms are the building blocks of matter. Atoms are made up of electron, neutron and proton particles. Electrons are negatively charged, neutrons are neutral and protons have a positive charge.
electron-negative, proton-positive, neutron-neutral
First of all, the forces they experience would be in exactly the opposite directions. Secondly, because the mass of the proton is greater, it would have a lower acceleration than the electron.
The electron.
They have opposite charges.
Proton has a greater mass than the electron.
an electron has way less mass than a proton.
No. A proton is many times more massive than an electron.
No. A proton is many times more massive than an electron.
the mass of an electron is actually about 1800 times lessthan a proton.
The proton mass is about 2,000 times greater than the electron mass.
The proton mass is about 2,000 times greater than the electron mass.
The proton mass is about 2,000 times greater than the electron mass.
The proton mass is about 2,000 times greater than the electron mass.
A magnetic field not a proton :) Hope This Helped!!
In kilograms, an electron's mass is ~9 x 10^(-31). A proton's mass is ~1.7 x 10^(-27). The mass of the proton is more than 1000 times of an electron.
they are equal.
