Problem

The following information applies for the next two problems. For your mass spectroscopy practical you are using an apparatus consisting of a solenoid enclosed by a uniformly charged hollow cylinder of charge density σ=50μC/m2\sigma=50 \mu \mathrm{C} / \mathrm{m}^{2} and radius r0=7 cmr_{0}=7 \mathrm{~cm}. There exists an infinitesimal slit of insular material between the cylinder and solenoid to stop any charge transfer. Also, assume that there is no interaction between the solenoid and the cylinder, and that the magnetic field produced by the solenoid can be easily controlled to a value of B0B_{0}. An electron is released from rest at a distance of R=10 cmR=10 \mathrm{~cm} from the axis. Assume that it is small enough to pass through the cylinder in both directions without exchanging charge. It is observed that the electron reaches a distance RR at different points from the axis 7 times before returning to the original position. Calculate B0B_{0} under the assumption that the path of the electron does not self-intersect with itself.
