An electron is moving along the positive $X$-axis. You want to apply a magnetic field for a short time so that the electron may reverse its direction and move parallel to the negative $X$-axis. This can be done by applying the magnetic field along

  • A
    $Y$-axis
  • B
    $X$-axis
  • C
    $Z$-axis
  • D
    None of these

What is the use of a mass spectrometer?

An electron (mass $= 9.1 \times 10^{-31} \, kg$; charge $= -1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, C$) experiences no deflection if subjected to an electric field of $3.2 \times 10^5 \, V/m$ and a magnetic field of $2.0 \times 10^{-3} \, Wb/m^2$. Both the fields are normal to the path of the electron and to each other. If the electric field is removed,then the electron will revolve in an orbit of radius.....$m$:

Velocity and acceleration vectors of a charged particle moving perpendicular to the direction of a magnetic field at a given instant of time are $\overrightarrow{v}=2 \hat{i}+c \hat{j}$ and $\overrightarrow{a}=3 \hat{i}+4 \hat{j}$ respectively. Then the value of $c$ is

$A$ particle of charge $q$ and mass $m$ starts moving from the origin under the action of an electric field $\vec E = E\hat i$ and a magnetic field $\vec B = B\hat i$ with an initial velocity $\vec v = v_0\hat j$. The speed of the particle will become $2v_0$ after a time:
