Question

An electron moving with kinetic energy 6.6 × 10-14 J enters in a magnetic field of 4 × 10-3 T at right angles to it. The radius of its circuclar path will be nearest to :

Options

A.100 cm
B.75 cm
C.25 cm
D.50 cm

Solution

When a charged particle enters a magnetic field, its path becomes circular whoseradius can be found out from the relation.
= Bqv ⇒ r =
E = mv2 = 6.6 × 10-14
= 6.6 × 10-14
⇒ m2v2 = 2m = 6.6 × 10-14
mv =


= 50 cm. approx.
