Moving Charge in a Magnetic Field
An -particle of energy 10 eV is moving in a circular path in uniform magnetic field. The energy of proton moving in the same path and same magnetic field will be [mass of -particle times mass of proton]
Show answer and solution
Answer: (d)
- Same path and field means same and : .
- Alpha: ; proton: . The ratio is 1.
- eV
- So the answer is (d) 10 eV.
