Current Question (ID: 20419)

Question:
$\text{A proton and an alpha particle of the same velocity enter a uniform magnetic field which is acting perpendicular to their direction of motion. The ratio of the circular paths described by the alpha particle and proton is:}$
Options:
  • 1. $1:4$
  • 2. $4:1$
  • 3. $2:1$
  • 4. $1:2$
Solution:
$\text{The radius of the circular path in a magnetic field is given by } r = \frac{mv}{qB}$. $\text{For a proton, } r_p = \frac{m_p v}{q_p B}$. $\text{For an alpha particle, } r_{\alpha} = \frac{m_{\alpha} v}{q_{\alpha} B}$. $\text{The mass of an alpha particle is approximately 4 times that of a proton, and its charge is 2 times that of a proton.}$ $\text{Therefore, } \frac{r_{\alpha}}{r_p} = \frac{4m_p}{2q_p} = 2:1.$
