  1. A 1.65×10-12 m
  2. B 3.3×10-12 m
  3. C 4.95×10-12 m
  4. D 6.6×10-12 m
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) 1.65×10-12 m

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The expression for the circular path in a uniform magnetic fields is, R=mvqB mv=qRB We know that de-Broglie wavelength of a charged particle is given by, λ=hmv Substitute the expression in the above equation. λ=hRqαB λ=h(+2e)BR…
