$A$ particle of charge $q$ and mass $m$ moving with a velocity $v$ along the $x$-axis enters the region $x > 0$ with a uniform magnetic field $B$ along the $\hat{k}$ direction. The particle will penetrate this region in the $x$-direction up to a distance $d$ equal to:

  • A
    Zero
  • B
    $\frac{mv}{qB}$
  • C
    $\frac{2mv}{qB}$
  • D

The acceleration of an electron at a moment in a magnetic field $\vec{B} = 2\hat{i} + 3\hat{j} + 4\hat{k}$ is $\vec{a} = x\hat{i} - 2\hat{j} + \hat{k}$. The value of $x$ is

Two identical charged particles enter a uniform magnetic field with the same speed but at angles $30^{\circ}$ and $60^{\circ}$ with the field. Let $a, b,$ and $c$ be the ratios of their time periods,radii,and pitches of the helical paths,respectively. Then:

$A$ beam of electrons passes undeflected through mutually perpendicular electric and magnetic fields. If the electric field is switched off,and the same magnetic field is maintained,the electrons move

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 $m_e = 9 \times 10^{-31} \ kg$)

Consider the mass spectrometer as shown in the figure. The electric field between the plates is $E \ V/m$,and the magnetic field in both the velocity selector and in the deflection chamber has magnitude $B$. Find the radius $r$ for a singly charged ion of mass $m$ in the deflection chamber.
