    An electron having mass\[9.1\times {{10}^{-31}}kg\]moves in a circular path of radius 0.4 m with velocity\[{{10}^{5}}\] m/s in a magnetic field. The strength of magnetic field is

    A)  \[1.56\times {{10}^{-5}}T\]                        

    B)  \[1.62\times {{10}^{-4}}T\]

    C)  \[1.42\times {{10}^{-6}}T\]                        

    D)  \[1.88\times {{10}^{-5}}T\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                    The magnetic field will provide the necessary centripetal force to the electron. i.e.,         \[{{F}_{cp}}={{F}_{m}}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[\frac{m{{v}^{2}}}{r}=qvB\sin 90{}^\circ \]                 \[B=\frac{mv}{e.r}=\frac{9.1\times {{10}^{-31}}\times {{10}^{5}}}{1.6\times {{10}^{-19}}\times 0.4}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[=\frac{91}{64}\times {{10}^{-6}}=142\times {{10}^{-6}}T\]
