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

A magnetic field $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{B}}=\mathrm{B}_0 \hat{\mathrm{j}}$ exists in the region $\mathrm{a} < \mathrm{x} < 2 \mathrm{a}$ and $\vec{B}=-B_0 \hat{j}$, in the region $2 \mathrm{a} < \mathrm{x} < 3 \mathrm{a}$, where $\mathrm{B}_0$ is a positive constant. $\mathrm{A}$ positive point charge moving with a velocity $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{v}}=\mathrm{v}_0 \hat{\dot{i}}$, where $v_0$ is a positive constant, enters the magnetic field at $x=a$. The trajectory of the charge in this region can be like,

Two particles $x$ and $y$ have equal charges and possessing equal kinetic energy enter in a uniform magnetic field and describe circular path of radius of curvature $r_1$ and $r_2$ respectively. The ratio of their masses is

If a positive ion is moving, away from an observer with same acceleration, then the lines of force of magnetic induction will be

An electron, a proton, a deuteron and an alpha particle, each having the same speed are in a region of constant magnetic field perpendicular to the direction of the velocities of the particles. The radius of the circular orbits of these particles are respectively $R_e, R_p, R_d \,$ and $\, R_\alpha$. It follows that
