Questions  

The two particles X and Y, having equal charge, after being accelerated through the same potential difference, enter a region of uniform magnetic field and describe circular paths of radii R1 and R2 respectively. The ratio of the mass of X to that of Y is

a
R1/R2
b
(R1/R2)2
c
(R1/R2)
d
(R2/R1)

detailed solution

Correct option is B

12mv2=qV  or  v=2qVmIn magnetic fieldmv2R=qvBor mvR=qB  or  mR×2qVm=qBor mR=qB2qV=q⋅B2V= constant ∴ mXMY=R1R22
