  • A
    West
  • B
    No deflection

An electron enters with a velocity $\vec{v} = v_0 \hat{i}$ into a cubical region (faces parallel to coordinate planes) in which there are uniform electric and magnetic fields. The orbit of the electron is found to spiral down inside the cube in a plane parallel to the $xy$-plane. Suggest a configuration of fields $\vec{E}$ and $\vec{B}$ that can lead to this.

Two particles $A$ and $B$ of masses $m_A$ and $m_B$ respectively,having the same charge,are moving in a plane. $A$ uniform magnetic field exists perpendicular to this plane. The speeds of the particles are $v_A$ and $v_B$ respectively,and the trajectories are as shown in the figure. Then:

${O^{++}}, {C^+}, {He^{++}}$ and ${H^+}$ ions are projected on a photographic plate with the same velocity in a mass spectrograph. Which one will strike the farthest?

$A$ particle of mass $m$ and charge $q$ enters a magnetic field $B$ perpendicularly with a velocity $v$. The radius of the circular path described by it will be:

An electric field of $1500\, V/m$ and a magnetic field of $0.40\, Wb/m^2$ act on a moving electron. The minimum uniform speed along a straight line the electron could have is
