    In a Thomson setup, \[E=30V-c{{m}^{-1}}\]and B = 6 G. Then, speed of the electron that goes undeflected in the common region of the two fields will be :

    A)  \[15\times {{10}^{6}}m/s\]                        

    B)  \[25\times {{10}^{6}}m/s\]

    C)  \[5\times {{10}^{6}}\text{ }m/s\]                            

    D)  \[1\times {{10}^{6}}\text{ }m/s\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

                     In Thomsons set up, for no deflection of electron. Force due to magnetic field = force due to electric field \[qvB=qE\] where q is quantity of change v the velocity, B the magnetic field and E the electric field. \[\therefore \]                  \[v=\frac{E}{B}\] Given,   \[E=30\text{ }V\text{ }c{{m}^{-1}}=30\times 100\text{ }Vm\]                 \[B=6G=6\times {{10}^{-4}}T\] \[\therefore \]  \[v=\frac{30\times 100}{6\times {{10}^{-4}}}=5\times {{10}^{6}}m/s\]
