A proton, a deuteron (nucleus of \({ }_1 \mathrm{H}^2\) ) and an \(\alpha\)-particle with same kinetic energy enter a region of uniform magnetic field moving at right angles to the field. The ratio of the radii of their circular paths is :

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

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(1: \sqrt{2}: 1\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(r=\frac{m v}{q B}=\frac{\sqrt{2 m K}}{q B}\) \(\Rightarrow \quad r \propto \frac{(m)^{1 / 2}}{q}\) \(\therefore \quad r_p=\frac{\left(m_p\right)^{1 / 2}}{q_p}, r_d=\frac{\left(m_d\right)^{1 / 2}}{q_d}\) and \(\quad r_\alpha=\frac{\left(m_\alpha\right)^{1 / 2}}{q_\alpha}\)…
