$A$ uniform electric field and a uniform magnetic field are produced,pointing in the same direction. An electron is projected with its velocity pointing in the same direction.

An electron of mass $9 \times 10^{-31} \ kg$ and charge $1.6 \times 10^{-19} \ C$ moving with a velocity of $10^6 \ ms^{-1}$ enters a magnetic field normally and describes a circle of radius $10 \ cm$. The intensity of the magnetic field is:

An electron is projected with uniform velocity along the axis inside a current-carrying long solenoid. Then:

An electron (mass $= 9 \times 10^{-31} \, kg$,charge $= 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, C$) with a kinetic energy of $7.2 \times 10^{-18} \, J$ is moving in a circular orbit in a magnetic field of $9 \times 10^{-5} \, Wb/m^2$. The radius of the orbit is ..... $cm$.

In the $xy$-plane, the region $y > 0$ has a uniform magnetic field $B_1 \hat{k}$ and the region $y < 0$ has another uniform magnetic field $B_2 \hat{k}$. A positively charged particle is projected from the origin along the positive $y$-axis with speed $v_0 = \pi \text{ m s}^{-1}$ at $t = 0$, as shown in the figure. Neglect gravity in this problem. Let $t = T$ be the time when the particle crosses the $x$-axis from below for the first time. If $B_2 = 4 B_1$, the average speed of the particle, in $\text{m s}^{-1}$, along the $x$-axis in the time interval $T$ is. . . .
