Motion of a charged particle
Question

A particle of mass ‘m ’ and charge ‘ q’ is projected into a region having a perpendicular uniform magnetic field ‘B’ of width d . Find the angle of deviation ‘θ ’ of the particle as it comes out of the magnetic field.

Moderate
Solution

 

The radius of the circular orbit is  r=mvqB(1)
The deviation 'θ' may be obtained from  sinθ=dr =dqBmv
θ=sin1dqBmv .
