    An electron beam passes through a magnetic field of \[\text{2}\times \text{1}{{0}^{-3}}\] \[\text{Wb}/{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}\]and an electric field of \[1.0\times \text{1}{{0}^{\text{4}}}\text{V}/\text{m}\]both acting simultaneously. The path of electron remains undeviated. The speed of electron, if the electric field is removed, and the radius of electron path will be respectively

    A)  \[\text{1}0\times \text{1}{{0}^{\text{6}}}\text{ m}/\text{s},\text{ 2}.\text{43 cm}\]

    B)  \[\text{2}.\text{5}\times \text{1}{{0}^{\text{6}}}\text{ m}/\text{s},\text{ }0.\text{43 cm}\]

    C)  \[\text{5}\times \text{l}{{0}^{\text{6}}}\text{m}/\text{s},\text{ 1}.\text{42cm}\]

    D)  None of the above

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                     Since, path of electron remains undeviated, hence force due to magnetic field                 = force due to electric field \[\therefore \]  \[F=qE=qvB\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[v=\frac{E}{B}\] Given,   \[B=2\times {{10}^{-3}}Wb/{{m}^{2}}\],                 \[E=1\times {{10}^{4}}V/m\] \[\therefore \]  \[v=\frac{1\times {{10}^{4}}}{2\times {{10}^{-3}}}=5\times {{10}^{6}}m/s\]. When electric field is removed, electron transverses a circular path of radius r given by                 \[\Rightarrow \]               \[r=\frac{mv}{eB}\] Given,   \[m=9.1\times {{10}^{-31}}kg\],                 \[v=5\times {{10}^{6}}m/s\],                 \[e=1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}C\]                 \[B=2\times {{10}^{-3}}Wb/{{m}^{2}}\] \[\therefore \]  \[r=\frac{9.1\times {{10}^{-31}}\times 5\times {{10}^{6}}}{1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}\times 2\times {{10}^{-3}}}\]                 = 1.42 cm
