An electron at rest is accelerated by a potential $V_{1}$ and then enters a uniform magnetic field,experiencing a force $F_{1}$. When the potential is changed to $V_{2}$,the force experienced by the electron becomes $2F_{1}$. The ratio of $V_{1}$ to $V_{2}$ is:

$A$ nucleus at rest undergoes $\alpha -$ decay according to the equation ${}_{92}^{226}X \to Y + \alpha$. At $t=0$,the emitted $\alpha -$ particle enters a region of space where a uniform magnetic field $\vec{B} = B_0 \hat{i}$ and an electric field $\vec{E} = E_0 \hat{i}$ exist. The $\alpha -$ particle enters the region with velocity $\vec{v} = v_0 \hat{j}$ at $x = 0$. After a time $t = \left( \sqrt{3} \times 10^7 \frac{m_{\alpha}}{q_{\alpha} E_0} \right)$,the particle is found to have twice its initial speed. The initial speed $v_0$ of the $\alpha -$ particle is:

$A$ particle of charge $1.0 \times 10^{-16} \ C$ moves through a uniform magnetic field $B=B_0(\hat{i}+4 \hat{j}) \ T$. The particle velocity at some instant is $v=(2 \hat{i}+4 \hat{j}) \ ms^{-1}$ and the magnetic force acting on it is $3 \times 10^{-16} \hat{k} \ N$. The magnitude of $B_0$ is (in $T$)

In a chamber,a uniform magnetic field of $6.5 \;G \left(1 \;G = 10^{-4} \;T \right)$ is maintained. An electron is shot into the field with a speed of $4.8 \times 10^{6} \;m s^{-1}$ normal to the field. Explain why the path of the electron is a circle. Determine the radius of the circular orbit. $\left(e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \;C, m_{e} = 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \;kg \right)$

An electron having charge $1.6 \times 10^{-19} \ C$ and mass $9 \times 10^{-31} \ kg$ is moving with $4 \times 10^6 \ m \ s^{-1}$ speed in a magnetic field of $2 \times 10^{-1} \ T$ in a circular orbit. The force acting on the electron and the radius of the circular orbit is $.........$
