An electron and a proton of equal linear momentum enter in a direction perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field. If the radii of their circular paths are $r_e$ and $r_p$ respectively,then $\frac{r_e}{r_p}$ is equal to - (mass of electron $= m_e$,mass of proton $= m_p$)

  • A
    $\left[\frac{m_p}{m_e}\right]^{\frac{1}{2}}$
  • B
    $\frac{m_e}{m_p}$
  • C
    $\left|\frac{m_e}{m_p}\right|^{\frac{1}{2}}$
  • D
    $1$

$A$ charged particle moves through a magnetic field perpendicular to its direction. Then

An $\alpha$-particle travels in a circular path of radius $0.45\,m$ in a magnetic field $B = 1.2\,Wb/m^2$ with a speed of $2.6 \times 10^7\,m/s$. The period of revolution of the $\alpha$-particle is:

An electron (mass $= 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \, kg$; charge $= -1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, C$) experiences no deflection if subjected to an electric field of $3.2 \times 10^5 \, V/m$ and a magnetic field of $2.0 \times 10^{-3} \, Wb/m^2$. Both the fields are normal to the path of the electron and to each other. If the electric field is removed,then the electron will revolve in an orbit of radius.....$m$:
