Question

A charged particle moves in a circular path in a uniform magnetic field.If the speed is reduced then its time period will
  1. decrease
  2. remain same
  3. increase
  4. None of these

A
increase
B
decrease
C
remain same
D
None of these
Solution
Verified by Toppr

The time period of a charged particle in a uniform magnetic field perpendicular to direction of motion is given by :

T=2πmqB

which is independent of speed of particle, hence T will remain same.
