In the given figure,an electron enters a magnetic field directed into the plane of the paper. It deflects in which direction?

An electron experiences a force $\vec{F} = (4.0\,\hat{i} + 3.0\,\hat{j}) \times 10^{-13}\,N$ in a uniform magnetic field when its velocity is $\vec{v}_1 = 2.5\,\hat{k} \times 10^7\,m/s$. When the velocity is redirected to $\vec{v}_2 = (1.5\,\hat{i} - 2.0\,\hat{j}) \times 10^7\,m/s$,the magnetic force on the electron is zero. The magnetic field $\vec{B}$ is:

An electron enters the space between the plates of a charged capacitor as shown. The surface charge density on the plates is $\sigma$. The electric field intensity in the space between the plates is $E$. $A$ uniform magnetic field $B$ also exists in the space,perpendicular to the direction of $E$. The electron moves perpendicular to both $\overrightarrow{E}$ and $\overrightarrow{B}$ without any change in direction. The time taken by the electron to travel a distance $l$ in the space is:

An $\alpha$-particle and a proton travel with the same velocity in a magnetic field perpendicular to the direction of their velocities. Find the ratio of the radii of their circular paths.

If a proton is projected in a direction perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field with velocity $v$ and an electron is projected along the lines of force,what will happen to the proton and electron?
