An electron having momentum `2.4 xx 10^(-23)" kg m s"^(-1)` enters a region of uniform magnetic field of 0.15 T. The field vector makes an angle of `30^(@)` with the initial velocity vector of the electron. The radius of the helical path of the electron in the field shall beA. 2mmB. 1mmC. `sqrt3/2` mmD. 0.5mm

Answer» Correct Answer - D
The radius of the helical path of the electron in the uniform magnetic field is
`r=(mv_(_|_))/(eB)=("mv sin "theta)/(eB)=((2.4xx10^(-23)"kg m s"^(-1))xxsin 30^(@))/((1.6xx10^(-19)C)xx(0.15T))`
`=5xx10^(-4)m=0.5xx10^(-3)m=0.5mm`
