KCET2019PhysicsMagnetic Effects of Current
An electron is moving with an initial velocity ( V =V₀ i ) and is in a uniform magnetic field ( B =B₀ j ). Then its de Broglie wavelength
Options
- Adecreases with time
- Bremains constant
- Cincrease and decreases periodically
- Dincreases with time
Correct answer
B. remains constant
Step-by-step solution
(B) de-Broglie wavelength ( = h m v ) Electron is entering perpendicular to magnetic field. It moves in a circular path. But its speed remains same. Therefore de Broglie wavelength also remains constant.
