Question

An electron and a proton travel with equal speeds and in the same direction, at 90o to a uniform magnetic field. They experience forces which are initially
  1. in opposite direction and differ by a factor of about 1840
  2. in the same direction and differ by a factor of about 1840
  3. identical
  4. equal in magnitude but in opposite directions

A
in opposite direction and differ by a factor of about 1840
B
in the same direction and differ by a factor of about 1840
C
equal in magnitude but in opposite directions
D
identical
Solution
Verified by Toppr

As both of the particle having same speed and in the same field at same angle, they will be experiencing same force but in opposite direction as they are opposite in charge.

Q2
A group of particles is travelling in a magnetic field of unknown magnitude and direction. You observe that a proton moving at 1.50km/s in the +x-direction experiences a force of 2.25×106N in the +y-direction, and an electron moving at 4.75 km/s in the z-direction experiences a force of 8.50×1016N in the +y-direction. (a) What are the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field? (b) What are the magnitude and direction of the magnetic force on an electron moving in the y-direction at 3.20km/s?
