Two infinitely long straight current carrying wires are placed parallel to y-axis in xy plane. Each wire carries current I in opposite directions as shown. A charged particle of charge +q and mass m is projected from position P (0, 0, a) with initial velocity v=vj .Then

a
The magnitude of initial acceleration of the particle is μ0Iqv2πam
b
The direction of initial acceleration of the particle is parallel to positive x-axis
c
The direction of initial acceleration of the particle is parallel to positive y-axis
d
The radius of curvature of the path of the particle just after it is projected is  2πamvμ0Iq

detailed solution

Correct option is A

B→net=2Bcosθk^=2μ0I2π2a12k^=μ0I2πak^F→=q(vj^)×μ0I2πak^=μ0Iqv2πai^a→=F→m=μ0Iqv2πami^ Radius of curvature R=v2a=2πamv2μ0Iqv=2πamvμ0Iq
