$A$ proton and an $\alpha$-particle enter a uniform magnetic field perpendicularly with the same speed. If a proton takes $25 \ \mu s$ to make $5$ revolutions,then the periodic time for the $\alpha$-particle would be ........ $\mu s$.

$A$ magnetic field set up using Helmholtz coils is uniform in a small region and has a magnitude of $0.75 \;T$. In the same region,a uniform electrostatic field is maintained in a direction normal to the common axis of the coils. $A$ narrow beam of (single species) charged particles all accelerated through $15 \;kV$ enters this region in a direction perpendicular to both the axis of the coils and the electrostatic field. If the beam remains undeflected when the electrostatic field is $9.0 \times 10^{5} \;V \,m^{-1}$,make a simple guess as to what the beam contains. Why is the answer not unique?

An electron enters a region where the electrostatic field is $20\,N/C$ and the magnetic field is $5\,T$. If the electron passes undeflected through the region,then the velocity of the electron will be.....$m\,s^{-1}$.
