A proton and an alpha particle moving with equal kinetic energies enter perpendicularly into a magnetic field. If \( r_p \) and \( r_\alpha \) are the respective radii of their circular paths, what will be the ratio \( \frac{r_p}{r_\alpha} \)?
- A \( 1 : \sqrt{2} \)
- B \( \sqrt{2} : 1 \)
- C \( 1 : 1 \)
- D \( 1 : 2 \)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \( 1 : 1 \)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( r = \frac{\sqrt{2mK}}{qB} \) \( \frac{r_p}{r_\alpha} = \frac{q_\alpha}{q_p} \sqrt{\frac{m_p}{m_\alpha}} \) \( \frac{r_p}{r_\alpha} = \frac{2e}{e} \sqrt{\frac{m_p}{4m_p}} \) \( \frac{r_p}{r_\alpha} = 2 \times \frac{1}{2} = 1 \)
