Question
Electron of mass m and charge q is travelling with a speed along a circular path of radius r at right angles to a uniform magnetic field of intesity B. if the speed of the electron is doubled and the magnetic field is halved the resting path would have a radius
Options
A.2r
B.4r
C.

D.

Solution
Radius of path is given by r = 
Here, m and q remain unchanged
So,
⇒ r2 = 4r

Here, m and q remain unchanged
So,
⇒ r2 = 4r
