Bert says that a charged particle in a vacuum can travel in a helix only if a uniform electric field and a uniform magnetic field are both present and both parallel to the axis of the helix. Stuart says that only a magnetic field with a component parallel to the axis of the helix is needed. Which one, if either, is correct, and why?

◦
Bert, because the charged particle's velocity can have a vertical component only if an electric field in the vertical direction is present.

◦
Stuart, because a component of velocity in the vertical direction is not changed by a vertical component of a magnetic field.

◦
Bert, because a component of velocity in the vertical direction is changed by a vertical component of a magnetic field.

◦
Stuart, because an electric field in the vertical direction would cause the particle to come to a complete stop.

◦
Neither, because particles cannot move in helical paths in the presence of magnetic and electric fields.

Dogs have been used in studies to detect various cancers in human subjects. They have been trained to sniff breath samples from humans that were collected by having them breathe into special tubes. These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
