Questions  

A uniform magnetic field B is acting from south to north and is of magnitude 1.5 Wb/m2.  If a proton having mass =1.7×1027 kg and charge =1.6×1019C moves in this field vertically downwards with energy 5 Me V, then the force acting on it will be

a
7.4×1012 N
b
7.4×10−12 N
c
7.4×1019 N
d
7.4×10−19 N

detailed solution

Correct option is B

F =qvB and K=12mv2⇒F=qB2Km=1.6×10−19×1.52×5×106×1.6×10−191.7×10−27=7.344×10−12 N
