Electromagnetism 3 An electron moves in a uniform magnetic field of flux density 0.58 mT. It moves at constant speed in a horizontal circle of radius 88 mm as shown in the figure below. 88 mm actre a) The electron moves clockwise around the horizontal circle. In which direction is the magnetic field directed? mark) b) Explain why the electron is accelerating even though it is travelling at constant speed. (1 mark) c) i. Calculate the centripetal force acting on the electron (2 marks) ili. (2 marks) Calculate the angular speed of the electron, giving an appropriate unit. iii. How many times does the electron travel around the circle in one minute? (2 marks)
