The ratio of cyclotron frequency ff to the radius of the path of a charged particle RR is q2B22πm2x\dfrac{q^2 B^2}{2\pi m^2}x. Then the value of xx is ( vv is velocity of charged particle)

Options

  1. Av2v^2
  2. Bv−2v^{-2}
  3. Cvv
  4. Dv−1v^{-1}

Correct answer

D. v−1v^{-1}

Step-by-step solution

The radius of the circular path of a charged particle in a uniform magnetic field is given by R=mvqBR = \dfrac{mv}{qB}.

The cyclotron frequency is given by f=qB2πmf = \dfrac{qB}{2\pi m}.

Taking the ratio of the cyclotron frequency to the radius, we get:

fR=qB2πmmvqB=q2B22πm2v\dfrac{f}{R} = \dfrac{\dfrac{qB}{2\pi m}}{\dfrac{mv}{qB}} = \dfrac{q^2 B^2}{2\pi m^2 v}

It is given that fR=q2B22πm2x\dfrac{f}{R} = \dfrac{q^2 B^2}{2\pi m^2}x.

Comparing the two expressions, we get x=1v=v−1x = \dfrac{1}{v} = v^{-1}.

Answer: v−1v^{-1}
