4.Moving Charges and Magnetism
medium

A proton of mass $1.67\times10^{-27}\, kg$ and charge $1.6\times10^{-19}\, C$ is projected with a speed of $2\times10^6\, m/s$ at an angle of $60^o$ to the $X-$ axis. If a uniform magnetic field of $0.104\, tesla$ is applied along the $Y-$ axis, the path of the proton is

A

A circle of radius $ \cong $ $0.1\, m$ and time period $2\pi \times10^{-7}\, s$.

B

A circle of radius $ \cong $ $0.2\, m$ and time period $7\pi \times10^{-7}\, s$.

C

A helix of radius $ \cong $ $0.1\, m$ and time period $2\pi \times10^{-7}\, s$.

D

A helix of radius $ \cong $ $0.2\, m$ and time period $4\pi \times10^{-7}\, s$.

Solution

By using $r=\frac{m v \sin \theta}{q B}$

$\Rightarrow r=\frac{1.67 \times 15^{27} \times 2 \times 10^{6} \times \sin 30^{\circ}}{1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 0.104}$

$=0.1 m$

and it's time period

$T=\frac{2 \pi m}{q B}=\frac{2 \times \pi \times 9.1 \times 10^{-31}}{1.6 \times 10^{-19} \times 0.104}$

$=2 \pi \times 10^{-7} \mathrm{sec}$
