Question:

Case : Read the passage and answer the question(s).

A charged particle whose mass is 19.9 ×10-27 kg and charge is 1.6×10-19 C moves with a speed of 3×105 m/s at right angle to a magnetic field of 0.75 T.

What is the radius of the circle in which charged particle moves?

Options:

49.7×10-3 m

49.7×10-4 m

61.1×10-3 m

61.1×10-4 m

Correct Answer:

49.7×10-3 m

Explanation:

r = \(\frac{mv}{qB}\) 

m = 19.9 x 10-27 Kg ; v = 3 x 105 m s-2 ; q = 1.6 x 10-19 C ; B = 0.75 T

r = 49.7×10-3 m
