Force on a charged particle moving in a magnetic field
Question

If a charged particle of charge to mass ratio α enters in a magnetic field of strength B at a speed v=2αd  B, then

Moderate
Solution

r=mvqB  =  v  =  2αdB=2d

i.e., the electron will move out after travelling on a semicircular path of radius r = 2d.
