An electron is accelerated by a potential difference of $12000\, V$. It then enters a uniform magnetic field of $10^{-3}\, T$ applied perpendicular to the path of the electron. Find the radius of the path. Given: mass of electron $m = 9 \times 10^{-31}\, kg$ and charge on electron $q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19}\, C$.

An electron beam travels with a velocity of $1.6 \times 10^7 \ m/s$ perpendicularly to a magnetic field of intensity $0.1 \ T$. Calculate the radius of the path of the electron beam. (Given: mass of electron $m_e = 9 \times 10^{-31} \ kg$)
