$A$ charged particle with specific charge $S$ moves undeflected through a region of space containing mutually perpendicular uniform electric and magnetic fields $E$ and $B$. When the electric field is switched off,the particle will move in a circular path of radius:

$A$ proton (mass $m$ and charge $+e$) and an $\alpha$-particle (mass $4m$ and charge $+2e$) are projected with the same kinetic energy at right angles to a uniform magnetic field. Which one of the following statements will be true?

At $t = 0$,a charge $q$ is at the origin and moving in the $y$-direction with velocity $\vec{v} = v\hat{j}$. The charge moves in a magnetic field that is for $y > 0$ out of the page and given by $B_1\hat{k}$ and for $y < 0$ into the page and given by $-B_2\hat{k}$. The charge's subsequent trajectory is shown in the sketch. From this information,we can deduce that:

An electron is moving along the $+x$ direction. To make it move along an anticlockwise circular path in the $x-y$ plane,the magnetic field must be applied along:

The charge on a particle $Y$ is double the charge on particle $X$. These two particles $X$ and $Y$,after being accelerated through the same potential difference,enter a region of uniform magnetic field and describe circular paths of radii $R_1$ and $R_2$ respectively. The ratio of the mass of $X$ to that of $Y$ is
