The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of finding the radius of the circular path described by charged particles in a magnetic field, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Values**: - Magnetic field strength, \( B = 0.05 \, \text{T} \) - Velocity of the charged particles, \( v = 2.5 \times 10^4 \, \text{m/s} \) - Charge to mass ratio, \( \frac{Q}{m} = 7.5 \times 10^6 \, \text{C/kg} \) 2. **Use the Formula for Radius of Circular Motion in a Magnetic Field**: The radius \( r \) of the circular path of a charged particle moving in a magnetic field is given by the formula: \[ r = \frac{mv}{qB} \] However, we can express this in terms of the charge to mass ratio: \[ r = \frac{v}{\frac{Q}{m} \cdot B} \] 3. **Substitute the Values into the Formula**: Now we can substitute the known values into the formula: \[ r = \frac{2.5 \times 10^4}{7.5 \times 10^6 \cdot 0.05} \] 4. **Calculate the Denominator**: First, calculate the denominator: \[ 7.5 \times 10^6 \cdot 0.05 = 3.75 \times 10^5 \] 5. **Calculate the Radius**: Now substitute this value back into the equation for \( r \): \[ r = \frac{2.5 \times 10^4}{3.75 \times 10^5} \] Simplifying this gives: \[ r = \frac{2.5}{3.75} \times 10^{-1} = \frac{2.5}{3.75} \times 0.1 \] \[ r = \frac{2.5}{3.75} \times 0.1 = \frac{1}{1.5} \times 0.1 \approx 0.06667 \, \text{m} \] 6. **Convert to Centimeters**: To express the radius in centimeters: \[ r \approx 6.67 \, \text{cm} \] ### Final Answer: The radius of the circular path described by the charged particles is approximately \( 6.67 \, \text{cm} \). ---
