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. 1 MeVB. 0.5 MeVC. 4 MeVD. 2 MeV

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`r=(sqrt(2m(KE)))/(qB)`
`q prop sqrt(m(KE))`
`(e)/(2e)=sqrt(((m_(p))(1MeV))/((4m_(p))(KE)))`
`(1)/(4)=(1)/(4(KE))`
`KE=1MeV`
