Q117 / 180 · NEET 2019 (All India) · Physics
Ionized hydrogen atoms and -particles with same momenta enters perpendicular to a constant magnetic field . The ratio of their radii of their paths will be
- Correct answerA
- B
- C
- D
Solution
The radius of a charge particle moving in a magnetic field is given by,
; where is mass, is velocity and is momentum of the charge particle.
For constant momentum and magnetic field,
So, the ratio of the radii of Hydrogen ion to -particle will be,
.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'A'.
