Question:

An electron has a circular path of radius 0.01 m in a perpendicular magnetic induction $10^{-3} T$. The speed of the electron is nearly

Options:

$1.76 × 10^4 m/s$

$1.76 × 10^6 m/s$

$3.52 × 10^6 m/s$

$7.04 × 10^6 m/s$

Correct Answer:

$1.76 × 10^6 m/s$

Explanation:

$R = \frac{mv}{qB}$

$\Rightarrow v = \frac{qBR}{m} = \frac{ 1.6\times 10^{-19} \times 10^{-3} \times 0.01}{9.11\times 10^{-31}} = 1.76\times 10^6 m/s$
