The magnetic force on the electron is:
$F=qvB \sin \theta$
where q is the electron charge, v the electron speed, B the magnetic field intensity and $\theta$ is the angle between v and B. Since the electron is traveling perpendicular to the magnetic field, $\sin \theta = \sin 90^{\circ}=1$ , so we can write
F=qvB

This force acts as centripetal force of the motion, $F_c = m \frac{v^2}{r}$ , where m is the electron mass and r the radius of the circular orbit. So we can write:
$qvB=m \frac{v^2}{r}$
and by re-arranging this equation, we find the radius of the circular orbit, r:
$r= \frac{mv}{qB}= \frac{(9.1 \cdot 10^{-31}kg)(7.45 \cdot 10^6 m/s)}{(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19}C)(1.10 \cdot 10^{-5}T)}= 3.85 m$

Sledgehammer A has more momentum

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of Sledgehammer A = 3 Kg

Swing speed = 1.5 m/s

Mass of Sledgehammer B = 4 Kg

Swing speed = 0.9 m/s

Find:

More momentum

Computation:

Momentum = mv

Momentum sledgehammer A = 3 x 1.5

Momentum sledgehammer A = 4.5 kg⋅m/s

Momentum sledgehammer B = 4 x 0.9

Momentum sledgehammer B = 3.6 kg⋅m/s

Sledgehammer A has more momentum
