4.Moving Charges and Magnetism
easy
A uniform magnetic field acts at right angles to the direction of motion of electrons. As a result, the electron moves in a circular path of radius $2\, cm$. If the speed of the electrons is doubled, then the radius of the circular path will be.....$cm$
A
$2$
B
$0.5$
C
$4$
D
$1$
(AIPMT-1991)
Solution
(c) $r = \frac{{mv}}{{qB}} \Rightarrow r \propto v,\;\,\; \Rightarrow {r_2} = 2{r_1} = 2 \times 2 = 4\,cm$
