12.6 Exercise 10

Avg difficulty 2.5

A solenoid with 25 turns per centimeter carries a current I. An electron moves within the solenoid in a circle that has a radius of 2.0 cm and is perpendicular to the axis of the solenoid. If the speed of the electron is 2.0×105m/s,2.0 \times 10^{5} \text{m}/\text{s} , what is I?
