$A$ charged particle of mass $m$ and charge $q$ is projected with velocity $v$ into a region of uniform magnetic field $B$ confined between two parallel plates separated by a distance $d$,as shown in the figure. What is the condition for the charged particle not to strike the opposite plate?

  • A
    $B > \frac{qd}{mv}$
  • B
    $B < \frac{mv}{qd}$
  • C
    $B < \frac{qd}{mv}$
  • D
    $B > \frac{mv}{qd}$

$A$ nucleus at rest undergoes $\alpha -$ decay according to the equation ${}_{92}^{226}X \to Y + \alpha$. At $t=0$,the emitted $\alpha -$ particle enters a region of space where a uniform magnetic field $\vec{B} = B_0 \hat{i}$ and an electric field $\vec{E} = E_0 \hat{i}$ exist. The $\alpha -$ particle enters the region with velocity $\vec{v} = v_0 \hat{j}$ at $x = 0$. After a time $t = \left( \sqrt{3} \times 10^7 \frac{m_{\alpha}}{q_{\alpha} E_0} \right)$,the particle is found to have twice its initial speed. The initial speed $v_0$ of the $\alpha -$ particle is:

$A$ homogeneous electric field $\vec{E}$ and a uniform magnetic field $\vec{B}$ are pointing in the same direction. $A$ proton is projected with its velocity parallel to $\vec{E}$. It will

Assertion : $A$ proton and an alpha particle having the same kinetic energy are moving in circular paths in a uniform magnetic field. The radii of their circular paths will be equal.
Reason : Any two charged particles having equal kinetic energies and entering a region of uniform magnetic field $\overrightarrow{B}$ in a direction perpendicular to $\overrightarrow{B}$,will describe circular trajectories of equal radii.
