4.Moving Charges and Magnetism
medium
An ion beam of specific charge $5 \times 10^7$ $coulomb/kg$ enter a uniform magnetic field of $4 \times 10^{-2}\, tesla$ with a velocity $2 \times 10^5\, m/s$ perpendicularly. The radius of the circular path of ions in meter will be
A
$0.10$
B
$0.16$
C
$0.20$
D
$0.25$
Solution
Given $: \frac{e}{m}=5 \times 10^{7} \mathrm{C} / \mathrm{kg}$
In a cyclotron, radius of the circular path,
$r=\frac{m v}{B e}=\frac{2 \times 10^{5}}{5 \times 10^{7} \times 4 \times 10^{-2}}=0.1 \mathrm{m}$
