A beam of well collimated cathode rays travelling with a speed of $5 \times {10^6}\,m{s^{ - 1}}$ enter a region of mutually perpendicular electric and magnetic fields and emerge undeviated from this region. If $| B |=0.02\; T$, the magnitude of the electric field is

  • A

    ${10^5}\,V{m^{ - 1}}$

  • B

    $2.5 \times {10^8}\,V{m^{ - 1}}$

  • C

    $1.25 \times {10^{10}}\,V{m^{ - 1}}$

  • D

    $2 \times {10^3}\,V{m^{ - 1}}$

In a mass spectrometer used for measuring the masses of ions, the ions are initially accelerated by an electric potential $V$ and then made to describe semicircular paths of radius $R$ using a magnetic field $B$. If $V$ and $B$ are kept constant, the ratio $\left( {\frac{{{\text{charge on the ion}}}}{{{\text{mass of the ion}}}}} \right)$ will be proportional to
