An electron is projected with uniform velocity along the axis inside a current-carrying long solenoid. Then:

  • A
    the electron will be accelerated along the axis.
  • B
    the electron will continue to move with uniform velocity along the axis of the solenoid.
  • C
    the electron path will be circular about the axis.
  • D
    the electron will experience a force at $45^{\circ}$ to the axis and execute a helical path.

$A$ rectangular region of dimensions $(\omega \times l)$ where $\omega \ll l$ has a constant magnetic field $B$ directed into the plane of the paper as shown in the figure. On one side,the region is bounded by a screen. On the other side,positive ions of mass $m$ and charge $q$ are accelerated from rest by a parallel plate capacitor at a constant potential difference $V$ and enter the magnetic field region through a small hole. Which one of the following statements is correct regarding the charge $q$ on the ions that hit the screen?

An electron (mass $m$) is accelerated through a potential difference of $V$ and then it enters a magnetic field of induction $B$ normal to the field lines. The radius of the circular path is ($e$ = electronic charge).

In the Thomson experiment for finding $e/m$ for electrons,the beam of electrons is replaced by a beam of muons (particles with the same charge as electrons but with a mass $208$ times that of electrons). The condition for no deflection is satisfied if:

$A$ velocity selector consists of an electric field $\overrightarrow{E} = E \hat{k}$ and a magnetic field $\overrightarrow{B} = B \hat{j}$ with $B = 12 \, mT$.
