Question 173 of 276

Proton, Deuteron and alpha particle of the same kinetic energy are moving in circular trajectories in a constant magnetic field. The radii of proton, deuteron and alpha particle are respectively rp,rdr_p, r_d and rαr_\alpha. Which one of the following relations is correct?

Show answer and solution

Answer: (B) rα=rp<rdr_\alpha=r_p \lt r_d

r=2mKBqr=\frac{\sqrt{2 m K}}{B q}
r∝mqr \propto \frac{\sqrt{m}}{q}
rα=rp<rdr_\alpha=r_p \lt r_d
