Under the influence of a uniform magnetic field a charged particle is moving in a circle of radius with constant speed . The time period of the motion
Options
- Adepends on and not on
- Bdepends on both and
- Cis independent of both and
- Ddepends on and not on
Correct answer
C. is independent of both and
Step-by-step solution
When magnetic field is perpendicular to motion of charged particle, then Centripetal force = magnetic force
ie,
or
Further, time period of the motion
or
\quad T=\frac{2 \pi m}{B q}R and .
