$A$ proton accelerated by a potential difference of $500 \ kV$ flies through a uniform transverse magnetic field of $0.1 \ T$. The field is spread over a region of $1.0 \ cm$ thickness. The angle through which the proton gets deviated from its original direction is (Proton mass $= 1.6 \times 10^{-27} \ kg$ and charge of proton $= 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \ C$) (in $rad$)

$A$ uniform magnetic field $B$ exists in a region. An electron of charge $q$ and mass $m$ moving with velocity $v$ enters the region in a direction perpendicular to the magnetic field. Considering Bohr angular momentum quantization, which of the following statement$(s)$ is/are true?

The figure shows a region of length $l$ with a uniform magnetic field of $0.3 \, T$ in it. $A$ proton enters the region with a velocity of $4 \times 10^{5} \, m/s$,making an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the field. If the proton completes $10$ revolutions by the time it crosses the region shown,$l$ is close to....... $m$ (mass of proton $= 1.67 \times 10^{-27} \, kg$,charge of the proton $= 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, C$)

An electron experiences a force $\vec{F} = (4.0\,\hat{i} + 3.0\,\hat{j}) \times 10^{-13}\,N$ in a uniform magnetic field when its velocity is $\vec{v}_1 = 2.5\,\hat{k} \times 10^7\,m/s$. When the velocity is redirected to $\vec{v}_2 = (1.5\,\hat{i} - 2.0\,\hat{j}) \times 10^7\,m/s$,the magnetic force on the electron is zero. The magnetic field $\vec{B}$ is:
