Questions  

An α-particle and a proton are projected in a uniform magnetic field in a direction perpendicular to the field. If r be the radius of circular path  energy of α-particle to that of proton is

a
1 : 4
b
2 : 1
c
4 : 1
d
1 : 2

detailed solution

Correct option is C

kinetic energy, K=12mv2⇒v=2Km∴r=vω=2K/mQB/m=2KmQB⇒K=Q2B2r22m⇒K∝Q2r2m ∴KαKp=QαQp2.rαrp2.mpmα2=2ee2.22.m4m=4
