An electron beam passes undeflected through a magnetic field of
weber
and an electric field of
both acting simultaneously. If the electric field is removed, what will be the radius of the electron path?
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
A
If electron beam passes undeflected in simultaneous electric and magnetic fields
and
, velocity of beam
must be mutually perpendicular and the required speed
is given by

If electric field is removed, the electron traverses a circular path of radius
given by
