    $\frac{x}{2\pi}$
  • B
    $\frac{x}{2\sqrt{2}\pi}$
  • C
    $\frac{x}{2\sqrt{3}\pi}$

An electron moving with a speed $u$ along the positive $x$-axis at $y = 0$ enters a region of uniform magnetic field $\overrightarrow B = -B_0 \hat k$ which exists to the right of the $y$-axis. The electron exits from the region after some time with the speed $v$ at coordinate $y$,then

The distance moved by a charged particle along the magnetic field (the component of velocity is parallel to the magnetic field) in one rotation is given by ($m$ - mass of the particle,$v$ - velocity of the particle,$q$ - charge of the particle,$B$ - magnetic field).

Consider the mass spectrometer as shown in the figure. The electric field between the plates is $E \ V/m$,and the magnetic field in both the velocity selector and in the deflection chamber has magnitude $B$. Find the radius $r$ for a singly charged ion of mass $m$ in the deflection chamber.
