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).

  • A
    $\frac{2 \pi m v}{q B}$
  • B
    $\frac{\pi mv}{qB}$
  • C
    $\frac{4 \pi mv}{qB}$
  • D
    $\frac{2 \pi m v}{q B^2}$

$A$ particle is moving in a uniform magnetic field,then

Two charged particles of mass $m$ and charge $q$ each are projected from the origin simultaneously with the same speed $V$ in a transverse magnetic field $B$. If $\vec{r}_1$ and $\vec{r}_2$ are the position vectors of the particles (with respect to the origin) at $t = \frac{\pi m}{qB}$, then the value of $\vec{r}_1 \cdot \vec{r}_2$ at that time is:

$A$ particle having a mass of $10^{-2} \, kg$ carries a charge of $5 \times 10^{-8} \, C$. The particle is given an initial horizontal velocity of $10^5 \, m/s$ in the presence of an electric field $\vec{E}$ and a magnetic field $\vec{B}$. To keep the particle moving in a horizontal direction,it is necessary that:
$(1)$ $\vec{B}$ should be perpendicular to the direction of velocity and $\vec{E}$ should be along the direction of velocity.
$(2)$ Both $\vec{B}$ and $\vec{E}$ should be along the direction of velocity.
$(3)$ Both $\vec{B}$ and $\vec{E}$ are mutually perpendicular and perpendicular to the direction of velocity.
$(4)$ $\vec{B}$ should be along the direction of velocity and $\vec{E}$ should be perpendicular to the direction of velocity.
