To solve the problem of finding the radius of the circular path of an electron in a magnetic field, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Convert the energy from electron volts to joules The energy of the electron is given as \( 2000 \, \text{eV} \). We know that: \[ 1 \, \text{eV} = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, \text{J} \] Thus, the energy in joules is: \[ E = 2000 \, \text{eV} \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \, \text{J/eV} = 3.2 \times 10^{-16} \, \text{J} ...
