The radius of the path of an electron moving at a speed of $3.2 \times 10^7 \ m/s$ in a magnetic field of $6 \times 10^{-4} \ T$ perpendicular to it is (mass of electron is $9 \times 10^{-31} \ kg$ and charge of electron is $1.6 \times 10^{-19} \ C$). (in $cm$)

$A$ particle having some charge is projected in the $x-y$ plane with a speed of $5\ m/s$ in a region having a uniform magnetic field along the $z-$ axis. Which of the following cannot be the possible value of velocity at any time?

Two charged particles of mass $m$ and charge $q$ each are projected from the origin simultaneously with the same speed $V$ in a transverse magnetic field $B$. If $\vec{r}_1$ and $\vec{r}_2$ are the position vectors of the particles (with respect to the origin) at $t = \frac{\pi m}{qB}$, then the value of $\vec{r}_1 \cdot \vec{r}_2$ at that time is:

$A$ particle of specific charge $q / m = \pi \text{ C kg}^{-1}$ is projected from the origin towards the positive $X$-axis with a velocity $10 \text{ ms}^{-1}$ in a uniform magnetic field $\vec{B} = -2 \hat{k} \text{ T}$. The velocity $\vec{v}$ of the particle after time $t = \frac{1}{12} \text{ s}$ will be (in $\text{ ms}^{-1}$):

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:
