$A$ proton accelerated by a potential difference of $500 \ kV$ flies through a uniform transverse magnetic field of $0.1 \ T$. The field is spread over a region of $1.0 \ cm$ thickness. The angle through which the proton gets deviated from its original direction is (Proton mass $= 1.6 \times 10^{-27} \ kg$ and charge of proton $= 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \ C$) (in $rad$)

An electron and a proton enter a region of uniform magnetic field in a direction at right angles to the field with the same kinetic energy. They describe circular paths of radius $r_e$ and $r_p$ respectively. Then:

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
