MOVING CHARGES AND MAGNETISM (01)

1. A charged particle enters at 30º to the magnetic field. Its path becomes?
2. An electron enters a uniform magnetic field with speed v it describes a semicircular
path and comes out of the field the final speed of the electron is
A) zero b) v c) v/2 d) 2v
3. The time period of a charged particle undergoing a circular motion in a uniform
magnetic field, is independent of its
a) speed b) charge c) magnetic induction d) mass
4. A 2 MeV proton is moving perpendicular to uniform magnetic field of 5T. what is the
force on the proton?
5. Assertion: a magnetic force acts on a current carrying wire placed in a magnetic field.
Reason: when current flows in the wire, the wire is charged
6. A proton and an electron travelling along parallel paths enter a region of uniform
magnetic field, acting perpendicular to their paths. Which of them will move in circular
path with higher frequency?
7. i) Write the expression for the magnetic force acting on a charged particle moving with
velocity in the presence of magnetic field B
8. ii) A neutron, an electron and an alpha particle moving with equal velocities, enter a
uniform magnetic field going into the plane of the paper as shown. Trace their paths in
the field and justify your statement.

9. What is the radius of the path of an electron (mass 9 × 10 -31 kg and

charge 1.6 × 10 -19C) moving at a speed of 3 ×107 m/s in a magnetic field of 6 × 10 -4 T
perpendicular to it? What is its frequency? Calculate its energy in keV.
( 1 eV = 1.6 × 10 -19 J).
10.An electron accelerating by a potential difference V = 1kV moves in a uniform
magnetic field at an angle α= 30º to the field B = 29 mT. find the pitch of the helical
trajectory.
