A proton carrying `1 MeV` kinetic energy is moving in a circular path of radius `R` in unifrom magentic field. What should be the energy of an `alpha-` particle to describe a circle of the same radius in the same field?A. `2 MeV`B. `1 MeVC. `0.5 MeVD. `4 MeV |

Answer» Correct Answer - B For proton `r = (sqrt(2m(KE)))/(qB)` So `q prop sqrt(m(KE))` Hence `(e)/(2e) = sqrt(((m_(p)) (1 meV))/((4m_(p)) (KE)))` `(1)/(4) = (1 MeV)/(4KE)` `KE = 1 MeV` |
