A proton is moving along negative X axis. If a uniform magnetic field is applied parallel to the positive Z axis, then choose the correct answer from the following options;
1. The proton will experience magnetic force along positive Y direction and will move along a circular path in the XY plane
2. The proton will experience magnetic force along negative Y direction and will move along a circular path in the XY plane
3. The proton will experience magnetic force along positive Y direction and will move along a circular path in the XZ plane
4. The proton will experience magnetic force along negative Y direction and will move along a circular path in the XZ plane
- A 3
- B 1
- C 2
- D 4
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 1
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Velocity of the proton, \(\vec{v} = -v \hat{i}\) Magnetic field, \(\vec{B} = B \hat{k}\) Charge of the proton, \(q = +e\) The magnetic force experienced by the proton is given by \(\vec{F} = q(\vec{v} \times \vec{B})\) Substituting the values,…
