A narrow beam of protons and deuterons, each having the same momentum, enters a region of uniform magnetic field directed perpendicular to their direction of momentum. The ratio of the radii of the circular paths described by them is

Options

  1. A1: 2
  2. B1: 1
  3. C2: 1
  4. D1: 3

Correct answer

B. 1: 1

Step-by-step solution

Since, the radius of circular path of a charged particle in magnetic field is r=mvqB=ρqB\mathrm{r}=\frac{\mathrm{mv}}{\mathrm{qB}}=\frac{\rho}{\mathrm{qB}} Now, the radius of circular path of charged particle of given momentum ρ\rho and magnetic field B\mathrm{B} is given by r∝1q\mathrm{r} \propto \frac{1}{\mathrm{q}} But charge on both charged particles, protons and deuterons, is same. Therefore, rprD=qDqρ=1l\frac{\mathrm{r}_{\mathrm{p}}}{\mathrm{r}_{\mathrm{D}}}=\frac{\mathrm{q}_{\mathrm{D}}}{\mathrm{q}_{\rho}}=\frac{1}{\mathrm{l}}
