$A$ proton and a deuteron are both accelerated through the same potential difference and enter a magnetic field perpendicular to the direction of the field. If the deuteron follows a path of radius $R$,assuming the neutron and proton masses are nearly equal,the radius of the proton's path will be

  • A
    $R/\sqrt{2}$
  • B
    $R/2$
  • C
    $R$
  • D
    $\sqrt{2}R$

An electron moves through a uniform magnetic field $\vec{B} = B_0 \hat{i} + 2 B_0 \hat{j} \ T$. At a particular instant of time,the velocity of the electron is $\vec{v} = 3 \hat{i} + 5 \hat{j} \ m/s$. If the magnetic force acting on the electron is $\vec{F} = 5e \hat{k} \ N$,where $e$ is the magnitude of the charge of an electron,then the value of $B_0$ is . . . . . . $T$.

Which of the following particles will experience maximum acceleration when projected with the same speed in a transverse magnetic field?

An electron is moving with a speed of $10^8 \ m/s$ perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field of intensity $B$. Suddenly,the intensity of the magnetic field is reduced to $B/2$. The radius of the path becomes from the original value of $r$:

$A$ charged particle of mass $m$ and charge $q$ travels on a circular path of radius $r$ that is perpendicular to a magnetic field $B$. The time taken by the particle to complete one revolution is

The charge on a particle $Y$ is double the charge on particle $X$. These two particles $X$ and $Y$,after being accelerated through the same potential difference,enter a region of uniform magnetic field and describe circular paths of radii $R_1$ and $R_2$ respectively. The ratio of the mass of $X$ to that of $Y$ is
