Two particles of charges $+Q$ and $-Q$ are projected from the same point with a velocity $v$ in a region of uniform magnetic field $B$ such that the velocity vector makes an angle $\theta$ with the magnetic field. Their masses are $M$ and $2M,$ respectively. Then,they will meet again for the first time at a point whose distance from the point of projection is

An electron having kinetic energy of $100 eV$ circulates in a path of radius $10 cm$ in a magnetic field. The magnitude of magnetic field $|B|$ is approximately [Mass of electron $= 0.5 MeV/c^2$,where $c$ is the velocity of light].

An electron and a positron are released from $(0, 0, 0)$ and $(0, 0, 1.5R)$ respectively,in a uniform magnetic field $\vec{B} = B_0 \hat{i}$,each with an equal momentum of magnitude $P = eBR$. Under what conditions on the direction of momentum will the orbits be non-intersecting circles?

$A$ proton is moving undeflected in a region of crossed electric and magnetic fields at a constant speed of $2 \times 10^5 \text{ ms}^{-1}$. When the electric field is switched off,the proton moves along a circular path of radius $2 \text{ cm}$. The magnitude of the electric field is $x \times 10^4 \text{ N/C}$. The value of $x$ is . . . . . . . (Take the mass of the proton $= 1.6 \times 10^{-27} \text{ kg}$ and charge $e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \text{ C}$)

$A$ particle of charge $q$ and mass $m$ is moving with a velocity $-v \hat{i} (v \neq 0)$ towards a large screen placed in the $Y-Z$ plane at a distance $d$. If there is a magnetic field $\vec{B} = B_{0} \hat{k}$,the minimum value of $v$ for which the particle will not hit the screen is
