JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 4. Moving charges and magnetism

Two ions having same mass have charges in the ratio \(1: 2\). They are projected normally in a uniform magnetic field with their speeds in the ratio \(2: 3\). The ratio of the radii of their circular trajectories is -

  1. A \(4: 3\)
  2. B \(3: 1\)
  3. C \(2: 3\)
  4. D \(1: 4\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(4: 3\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(R =\frac{ mv }{ qB }\) \(\Rightarrow \frac{ R _{1}}{ R _{2}}=\frac{\frac{ mv _{1}}{ q _{1} B }}{\frac{ mv _{2}}{ q _{2} B }}=\frac{ v _{1}}{ q _{1}} \times \frac{ q _{2}}{ v _{2}}=\frac{ q _{2}}{ q _{1}} \times \frac{ v _{1}}{ v _{2}}\)…
