An electron is projected with uniform velocity along the axis of a current-carrying long solenoid. Which of the following is true?

  • A
    The electron path will be circular about the axis.
  • B
    The electron will be accelerated along the axis.
  • C
    The electron will experience a force at $45^{\circ}$ to the axis and hence execute a helical path.
  • D
    The electron will continue to move with uniform velocity along the axis of the solenoid.

$A$ proton and an alpha particle are separately projected in a region where a uniform magnetic field exists. Their initial velocities are perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field. If both the particles move around the magnetic field in circles of equal radii,the ratio of the momentum of the proton to the alpha particle $\left( \frac{P_p}{P_\alpha} \right)$ is

$A$ proton (or charged particle) moving with velocity $v$ is acted upon by an electric field $E$ and a magnetic field $B$. The proton will move undeflected if

$A$ particle is projected with a velocity of $10 \ m/s$ along the $y-$axis from the point $(2, 3)$. $A$ uniform magnetic field of $(3\hat{i} + 4\hat{j}) \ T$ exists in the space. What is its speed when the particle passes through the $y-$axis for the third time? (Neglect gravity)

In the $xy$-plane, the region $y > 0$ has a uniform magnetic field $B_1 \hat{k}$ and the region $y < 0$ has another uniform magnetic field $B_2 \hat{k}$. A positively charged particle is projected from the origin along the positive $y$-axis with speed $v_0 = \pi \text{ m s}^{-1}$ at $t = 0$, as shown in the figure. Neglect gravity in this problem. Let $t = T$ be the time when the particle crosses the $x$-axis from below for the first time. If $B_2 = 4 B_1$, the average speed of the particle, in $\text{m s}^{-1}$, along the $x$-axis in the time interval $T$ is. . . .
