Question

A particle carrying a charge e perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field of induction B with a momentum p, then the radius of the circular path is
  1. Be/p
  2. p/Be
  3. Bep
  4. pe/B

A
pe/B
B
Bep
C
Be/p
D
p/Be
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Answer is C.
Force in a magnetic field
F=qVB

and F=mV2r (By Newton's Law)

so, mV2r=qVB

mV = qrB

r=mVqB

=pBe (mV=p and q=e)
