$A$ particle with charge $-Q$ and mass $m$ enters a magnetic field of magnitude $B$, which exists only to the of the boundary $YZ$. The direction of the motion of the particle is perpendicular to the direction of $B$. Let $T = 2\pi \frac{m}{QB}$. The time spent by the particle in the field will be:

$A$ proton and an alpha particle are separately projected in a region where a uniform magnetic field exists. Their initial velocities are perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field. If both the particles move around the magnetic field in circles of equal radii,the ratio of the momentum of the proton to the alpha particle $\left( \frac{P_p}{P_\alpha} \right)$ is

When a charged particle moving with velocity $\vec{v}$ is subjected to a magnetic field of induction $\vec{B}$,the force on it is non-zero. This implies that

$A$ beam of protons moving with a velocity $1.6 \times 10^5 \ m/s$ enters a uniform magnetic field of $\frac{\pi}{10} \ T$ at an angle $60^{\circ}$ to the direction of the field. The pitch of the helical path of the protons is (mass of proton $= 1.6 \times 10^{-27} \ kg$)

An electron enters the space between the plates of a charged capacitor as shown. The surface charge density on the plates is $\sigma$. The electric field intensity in the space between the plates is $E$. $A$ uniform magnetic field $B$ also exists in the space,perpendicular to the direction of $E$. The electron moves perpendicular to both $\overrightarrow{E}$ and $\overrightarrow{B}$ without any change in direction. The time taken by the electron to travel a distance $l$ in the space is:
