Question
A charged particle is accelerated through a potential difference of 12kV and acquires a speed of $1.0 \times 10^6m s^{−1}$. It is then injected perpendicularly into a magnetic field of strength 0.2T. Find the radius of the circle described by it.

Answer

$\text{V}=12\text{KV}$$\text{E}=\frac{\text{qV}}{\text{ml}}$
Now, $\text{F}=\text{qE}=\frac{\text{qV}}{\text{l}}$
$\text{a}=\frac{\text{F}}{\text{m}}=\frac{\text{qv}}{\text{ml}}$
$\text{v}=1\times10^6\text{m/s}$
$\text{v}=\sqrt{2\times\frac{\text{qV}}{\text{ml}}\times\text{l}}=\sqrt{2\times\frac{\text{q}}{\text{m}}\times12\times10^3}$
$1\times10^6=\sqrt{2\times\frac{\text{q}}{\text{m}}\times12\times10^3}$
$\Rightarrow10^{12}=24\times10^3\times\frac{\text{q}}{\text{m}}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{m}}{\text{q}}=\frac{24\times10^3}{10^{12}}=24\times10^{-9}$
$\Rightarrow\frac{\text{mV}}{\text{qB}}=\frac{24\times10^{-9}\times1\times10^6}{2\times10^{-1}}=12\times10^{-2}\text{m}=12\text{cm}$

A glass tube, sealed at both ends, is 100cm long. It lies horizontally with the middle 10cm containing mercury. The two ends of the tube contain air at 27°C and at a pressure 76cm of mercury. The air column on one side is maintained at 0°C and the other side is maintained at 127°C. Calculate the length of the air column on the cooler side. Neglect the changes in the volume of mercury and of the glass.

$\big[$Hint: Assume the atoms to be ‘tightly packed’ in a solid or liquid phase, and use the known value of Avogadro’s number. You should, however, not take the actual numbers you obtain for various atomic sizes too literally. Because of the crudeness of the tight packing approximation, the results only indicate that atomic sizes are in the range of a few $\mathring{\text{A}}\big].$
