JEE MAIN - Physics (2020 - 6th September Morning Slot - No. 2)

A particle of charge q and mass m is moving with a velocity $$ - v\widehat i$$ (v $$ \ne $$ 0) towards a large screen placed in the Y - Z plane at a distance d. If there is a magnetic field $$\overrightarrow B = {B_0}\widehat k$$ , the maximum value of v for which the particle will not hit the screen is :
$${{2qd{B_0}} \over m}$$
$${{qd{B_0}} \over {3m}}$$
$${{qd{B_0}} \over {2m}}$$
$${{qd{B_0}} \over {m}}$$

Explanation

In uniform magnetic field particle moves in a circular path, if the radius of the circular path is 'd', particle will not hit the screen.

r = $${{mv} \over {q{B_0}}}$$

To not collide, r < d

$$ \Rightarrow $$ $${{mv} \over {q{B_0}}}$$ < d

$$ \Rightarrow $$ v < $${{q{B_0}d} \over m}$$

$$ \therefore $$ vmax = $${{q{B_0}d} \over m}$$
