MCQ
Electrons moving with different speeds enter a uniform magnetic field in a direction perpendicular to the field. They will move along circular paths.
  • A
    of same radius
  • with larger radii for the faster electrons
  • C
    with smaller radii for the faster electrons
  • D
    either $(b)$ or $(c)$ depending on the magnitude of the magnetic field

Answer

Correct option: B.
with larger radii for the faster electrons
b
$r=\frac{m v}{q B} \Rightarrow r \propto v$
