AP EAMCET · PHYSICS · Magnetic Effects of Current

Two electrons, e1 and e2 of mass m and charge q are injected into the perpendicular direction of the magnetic field B such that the kinetic energy of e1 is double than that of e2. The relation of their frequencies of rotation, f1 and f2 is

  1. A f1=f2
  2. B f1=2f2
  3. C 2f1=f2
  4. D 4f1=f2
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) f1=f2

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

As elocity of particles are perpendicular to the magnetic field, thus the particles moves in a circle. The centripetal force is experienced by electron is qvB. So, mv2r=qvB ⇒mvr=qB⇒mω=qB⇒ω=qBm Frequency is given by f=qB2πm. As frequency is…
