` H^(+), He^(+) and O^(++)` all having the same kinetic energy pass through a region in which there is a uniform magnetic field perpendicular to their velocity . The masses of ` H^(+), He^(+) and O^(2+)` are `1 amu, 4 amu and 16 amu` respectively . Then

A

`H^(+)` will be least deflected .

B

`He^(+)` and `O^(+2)` will be deflected equally .

C

`O^(+2)` will be deflected most .

D

all will be deflected equally.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

`r = sqrt(2mE)/(qB) implies r prop(sqrtm)/(q)`
`r_(H+) = r_(He+) : r_(O^+2) : (sqrt1)/(1) : (sqrt4)/(1) : (sqrt16)/(2) = 1 : 2 : 2 ` .

Mixed He^(+) and O^(2+) ions (mass of He^(+) =4 amu and that of O^(2+)=16 amu) beam passes a region of constant perpendicular magnetic field. If kinetic energy of all the ions is same then

An alpha particle (mass = 4amu) and a singly charged sulfur ion (mass 32 amu) are initially at rest. They are accelerated through potential V and then allowed to pass into a region of uniform magnetic field which is normal to velocities of the particles. Within this region the alpha particle and the sulfur ion move in circular orbits of radii r_a and r_s resp. The ratio (r_s/r_a) is
