A) speed
B) mass
C) charge
D) magnetic induction
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
In a circular motion in a uniform magnetic field, the necessary centripetal force to the charged particle is provided by the magnetic force, i.e., \[\frac{m{{v}^{2}}}{r}=qvB\] or \[r=\frac{mv}{qB}\] Thus, the time period T is \[T=\frac{2\pi r}{v}=\frac{2\pi }{v}\left( \frac{mv}{qB} \right)=\frac{2\pi m}{qB}\] So, T is independent of its speed.You need to login to perform this action.
