The radius of curvature of the path of a charged particle in a uniform magnetic field is directly proportional to the

  1. A charge of the particle
  2. B momentum of the particle
  3. C kinetic energy of the particle
  4. D flux density of the field
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) momentum of the particle

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(F_B = F_C\) \(qvB = \frac{mv^2}{r}\) \(r = \frac{mv}{qB}\) \(p = mv\) \(r = \frac{p}{qB}\) momentum of the particle
