KVPY2010PhysicsMagnetic Effects of Current
A charged particle of charge q and mass m , gets deflected through an angle upon passing through a square region of side 'a' which contains a uniform magnetic field B normal to its plane. Assuming that the particle entered the square at right angles to one side, what is the speed of the particle?
Options
- AqB m acot
- BqB m a
- CqB m a ²
- DqB m a ²
Correct answer
A. qB m acot
Step-by-step solution
Now = a R , R = mv qB v = q Bacot m
