Consider a long thin conducting wire carrying a uniform current $I$. $A$ particle having mass $M$ and charge $q$ is released at a distance $a$ from the wire with a speed $v_0$ along the direction of current in the wire. The particle gets attracted to the wire due to magnetic force. The particle turns round when it is at distance $x$ from the wire. The value of $x$ is [$\mu_0$ is vacuum permeability]

$A$ horizontal conductor is oriented north-south and carries some current. $A$ positively charged particle located vertically above it and having a velocity directed northward experiences an upward force. What is the direction of the force if this charged particle were located to the east of the conductor and had a velocity directed towards the conductor?

An electron enters the space between the plates of a charged capacitor as shown. The charge density on the plate is $\sigma$. Electric intensity in the space between the plates is $E$. $A$ uniform magnetic field $B$ also exists in that space perpendicular to the direction of $E$. The electron moves perpendicular to both $\vec{E}$ and $\vec{B}$ without any change in direction. The time taken by the electron to travel a distance $\ell$ in the space is
