Magnetic Effects Of Current Question 398
Question: Under the influence of a uniform magnetic field a charged particle is moving in a circle of radius R with constant speed v The time period of the motion
Options:
A) depends on both R and v
B) is independent of both R and v
C) depends on R and not on v
D) depends on v and not on R
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
[b] When a test charge $ q_{0} $ enters a magnetic field B directed along z-axis, with a velocity v making angles d with the z-axis. The time period of the motion is independent of R and v.
