An electron moving towards the east enters a magnetic field directed towards the north. The force on the electron will be directed
Vertically upward
Vertically downward
Towards the west
Towards the south
An $\alpha $ particle and a proton travel with same velocity in a magnetic field perpendicular to the direction of their velocities, find the ratio of the radii of their circular path
Answer the following questions:
$(a)$ A magnetic field that varies in magnitude from point to point but has a constant direction (east to west) is set up in a chamber. A charged particle enters the chamber and travels undeflected along a straight path with constant speed. What can you say about the initial velocity of the particle?
$(b)$ A charged particle enters an environment of a strong and non-uniform magnetic field varying from point to point both in magnitude and direction, and comes out of it following a complicated trajectory. Would its final speed equal the initial speed if it suffered no collisions with the environment?
$(c)$ An electron travelling west to east enters a chamber having a uniform electrostatic field in north to south direction. Specify the direction in which a uniform magnetic field should be set up to prevent the electron from deflecting from its straight line path.
A proton beam is going from north to south and an electron beam is going from south to north. Neglecting the earth's magnetic field, the electron beam will deflected (Zero gravity)
An electron is allowed to move with constant velocity along the axis of current carrying straight solenoid.
$A.$ The electron will experience magnetic force along the axis of the solenoid.
$B.$ The electron will not experience magnetic force.
$C.$ The electron will continue to move along the axis of the solenoid.
$D.$ The electron will be accelerated along the axis of the solenoid.
$E.$ The electron will follow parabolic path-inside the solenoid.
Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
If the direction of the initial velocity of the charged particle is neither along nor perpendicular to that of the magnetic field, then the orbit will be
