Ionized hydrogen atoms and \alpha\text{\alpha}-particles with same momenta enters perpendicular to a constant magnetic field BB. The ratio of their radii of their paths rH:rα{r}_{H}: {r}_{α} will be

Options

  1. A2:12: 1
  2. B1:21: 2
  3. C4:14: 1
  4. D1:41: 4

Correct answer

A. 2:12: 1

Step-by-step solution

The radius of a charge particle qq moving in a magnetic field is given by,

r=mvqB=pqBr = \dfrac{mv}{qB} = \dfrac{p}{qB}; where mm is mass, vv is velocity and pp is momentum of the charge particle.

For constant momentum and magnetic field,

r∝1qr ∝ \dfrac{1}{q}

So, the ratio of the radii of Hydrogen ion to α\alpha-particle will be,
rHr\alpha=q\alphaqH=21\dfrac{{r}_{H}}{{r}_{\text{\alpha}}} = \dfrac{{q}_{\text{\alpha}}}{{q}_{H}} = \dfrac{2}{1}
rH:r\alpha=2:1{r}_{H}: {r}_{\text{\alpha}} = 2: 1.
