Practice question
Question
An electron moves at 8 × 10â¶ m/s perpendicular to a field of 0.15 T . What is the radius of its path? (Mass = 9.1 × 10â»Â³Â¹ kg, charge = 1.6 × 10â»Â¹â¹ C )
Explanation
Given:
An electron moves at 8 × 10â¶ m/s perpendicular to a field of 0.15 T . What is the radius of its path? (Mass = 9.1 × 10â»Â³Â¹ kg, charge = 1.6 × 10â»Â¹â¹ C )
These values define the system as per NCERT data.
Formula:
r = mv/qB.
This is the standard NCERT relation for this phenomenon.
Substitution & Calculation:
r = frac9.1 × 10â»Â³Â¹ × 8 × 10â¶Â¹.6 × 10â»Â¹â¹ × 0.15 = frac7.28 × 10â»Â²â´Â².4 × 10â»Â²â°= 3.033 × 10â»â´ m approx 0.0303 cm .
Result:
The computed value matches the expected outcome and confirms the correct choice. Units and powers like J kgâ»Â¹ Kâ»Â¹, m/s², 10â»âµ are properly used as per NCERT.
