An electron, a proton and an alpha particle having the same kinetic energy are moving in circular orbits of radii respectively in a uniform magnetic field . The relation between is:
A charge particle in magnetic field
Force on particle due to magnetic field is,
where is the charge of particle, is velocity, is the strength of magnetic field, is the mass and is the radius
Kinetic energy is,
Since all three particles have same kinetic energy, we have
is mass of electron, mass of alpha particle and is mass of proton
and is the smallest mass,
Also charge of electron and proton is same but,
Hence, option D is correct.
