An electron of mass \( 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \text{ kg} \) carrying charge \( 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \text{ C} \), is moving horizontally with a speed of \( 4 \times 10^6 \text{ m/s} \) in a uniform magnetic field of magnitude \( 8 \times 10^{-4} \text{ T} \) acting vertically upward. The radius of its circular path is,
- A 28.4 cm
- B 2.84 cm
- C 24 cm
- D 32 cm
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) 2.84 cm
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( r = \frac{mv}{qB} \) \( r = \frac{(9.1 \times 10^{-31}) \times (4 \times 10^6)}{(1.6 \times 10^{-19}) \times (8 \times 10^{-4})} \) \( r = 0.0284375 \text{ m} = 2.84 \text{ cm} \)
