PhysicsMoving Charges and MagnetismMHT CET 2023

Electron of mass 'm' and charge 'q' is travelling with speed 'v' along a circular path of radius 'R', at right angles to a uniform magnetic field of intensity 'B'. If the speed of the electron is halved and the magnetic field is doubled, the resulting path would have radius

Answer: (D)

Solution

The magnetic force supplies the centripetal force: . New speed and new field : ,
