NEET · Physics · STD 12 - 4. Moving charges and magnetism

Ionized hydrogen atoms and \(\alpha\) -particles with same momenta enters perpendicular to a constant magnetic field \(B\). The ratio of their radii of their paths \(\mathrm{r}_{\mathrm{H}}: \mathrm{r}_{\alpha}\) will be

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

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(2:1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\frac{\mathrm{q}_{\mathrm{H}}}{\mathrm{q}_{\mathrm{\alpha}}}=\frac{1}{2}\) \(r=\frac{m v}{q B}\)
