Q. Two particles A and B of masses mA and mB, respectively, and having the same charge are moving in a plane. A uniform magnetic field exists perpendicular to this plane. The speeds of the particles are vA and vB, respectively and the trajectories are as shown in figure. Then

Magnetic Effects

(a) mAυA < mBυB

(b) mAυA > mBυB

(c) mA < MB and υA < υB

(d) mA = MB and υA = υB

Ans: (b)

Sol: RA > RB

$ \displaystyle \frac{m_A v_A}{qB} > \frac{m_B v_B}{qB} $
