Hello Student,
Please find the answer to your question
m = 1. 6 x 10-27 kg, q = 1.6 x 10-19 C
B = 1 T
v = 107 m/s
F = q.v B sin α
(acting towards O by Fleming’s left hand rule)
⇒ F = qv B [∵ α = 90°]
But F = ma
∴ qv B = ma ∴ a = qvB / m
= 1 . 6 x 10-19 x 107 x 1 / 1. 6 x 10-27 = 1.15 m/s2
∠ OEF = 45° (∵ OE act as a radius)
By symmetry ∠ EOF = 45°
∴ ∠EOF = 90° (by Geometry)
This is the centripetal acceleration
∴ v2 / r = 1015 ⇒ r = 1014 / 1015 = 0.1 m
Therefore EF = 0.141 m.
If the magnetic field is in the outward direction and the article enters in the same way at E, then according to Fleming’s left hand rule, the particle will turn towards clockwise direction and cover 3 /4 the of a circle as shown in the figure.
∴ The required = 3 / 4 x [ 2 πr / v] = 4.71 x 10-8 sec.
Thanks
