Two particles X and Y having equal charges, after being accelerated through the same potential difference, enter a region of uniform magnetic field and describes circular path of radius R 1 and R 2 respectively. The ratio of mass of X to that of Y is
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
The radius of charged particle in magnetic field,

According to question, let
and
are the masses,
are charges and
magnetic field and
, kinetic energy. When the charged particles are accelerated at same potential, then
will be same.
So, radius,
and
