A proton and helium nucleus are shot into a magnetic field at right angles to the field with same kinetic energy. Then the ratio of their radii is
- A \(1: 1\)
- B \(1: 2\)
- C \(2: 1\)
- D \(1: 4\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(1: 1\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The radius of the circular path, of a charges particle in magnetic field
\(r=\frac{m v}{q B}=\sqrt{\frac{2 m E}{q B}}\)
Here, kinetic energy for proton and helium is same and both are moving in the same magnetic field
\(\therefore r \propto \frac{\sqrt{m}}{q}\)
So, \(\frac{r_{P}}{r_{\mathrm{He}}}=\frac{\frac{\sqrt{m_{P}}}{q_{P}}}{\frac{\sqrt{m_{\mathrm{He}}}}{q_{\mathrm{He}}}}=\sqrt{\frac{m_{P}}{m_{\mathrm{He}}}} \times \frac{q_{\mathrm{He}}}{q_{P}}=\sqrt{\frac{m}{4 m}} \cdot \frac{2 q}{q}=\frac{1}{1}\)
\(r=\frac{m v}{q B}=\sqrt{\frac{2 m E}{q B}}\)
Here, kinetic energy for proton and helium is same and both are moving in the same magnetic field
\(\therefore r \propto \frac{\sqrt{m}}{q}\)
So, \(\frac{r_{P}}{r_{\mathrm{He}}}=\frac{\frac{\sqrt{m_{P}}}{q_{P}}}{\frac{\sqrt{m_{\mathrm{He}}}}{q_{\mathrm{He}}}}=\sqrt{\frac{m_{P}}{m_{\mathrm{He}}}} \times \frac{q_{\mathrm{He}}}{q_{P}}=\sqrt{\frac{m}{4 m}} \cdot \frac{2 q}{q}=\frac{1}{1}\)
