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 $q = 1.6 \times 10^{-19}\, C$.

  • A
    $36.7\, m$
  • B
    $36.7\, cm$
  • C
    $3.67\, m$
  • D
    $3.67\, cm$

An electron of mass $m$ and charge $e$ is projected normally from the surface of a sphere of radius $a$ with speed $v_0$ into a uniform magnetic field $B$ perpendicular to the plane of the paper. The centre of the sphere is at a distance $b$ from a wall. If the electron strikes the wall symmetrically with respect to the $x$-axis,what should be the magnetic field $B$ such that the charged particle just touches the wall?
