An electron of mass m and electric charge e is accelerated by a potential difference of V and then it enters in a magnetic field B perpendicular to the magnetic field lines. Radius of the circular path formed by electron is
Options
- A2 eV / m
- B2 Vm / eB 2
- C2 Vm / eB
- D2 Vm / e 2 B
Correct answer
B. 2 Vm / eB 2
Step-by-step solution
Bev = mv 2 r or r = mv Be as mv = 2 mT ( T = KE ) . So r = 2 mT Be As the electron has been accelerated from rest through a potential difference of V volt, then T = eV ∴ r = 2 mVe B 2 e 2 = 2 mV B 2 e
