Moving Charges And Magnetism Ques 88
88. Under the influence of a uniform magnetic field, a charged particle moves with constant speed $v$ in a circle of radius $R$. The time period of rotation of the particle:
[2009]
(a) depends on $R$ and not on $V$
(b) is independent of both $v$ and $R$
(c) depends on both $v$ and $R$
(d) depends on $v$ and not on $R$
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: 88.(b)
Solution:
- (b) The time period of the charged particle is given by, $T=\frac{2 \pi m}{qB}$
Thus, time period is independent of both $v$ and $R$.
