5.22 A monoenergetic (18 keV) electron beam initially in the horizontal direction is subjected to a horizontal magnetic field of 0.04 G normal to the initial direction. Estimate the up or down deflection of the beam over a distance of 30 cm (me = 9.11 × 10–31 kg).
[Note: Data in this exercise are so chosen that the answer will give you an idea of the effect of earth’s magnetic field on the motion of the electron beam from the electron gun to the screen in a TV set.]

5.22 Energy of an electron beam, E = 18 keV = 18 eV
Charge of an electron, e = 1.6 C
Total energy of the electron beam, = E = 18 1.6
Magnetic field, B = 0.04 G
Mass of an electron, = 9.11 kg
Distance up to which the electron beam travels, d = 30 cm = 0.3 m
The kinetic energy of an electron beam, = m =
v = = = 79.51 m/s
The electron beam deflects along a circular path of radius r.
The force due to the magnetic field balances the centripetal force of the path
Bev = or r = = = 11.3 m
Let the up and down deflection of the electron beam be x = r (1- cos) where = Angle of declination
= =
x = 11.3 (1 &nd
