A uniform magnetic field exists in a circular region of radius r .The magnitude of magnetic field is B and points inward.An electron flies into the region radially as shown in figure.After a certain time, the electron deflected by the magnetic field leaves the region.The time interval during which the electron moves in the region is (Nm tan^(-1(eBr)/(mV)))/(eB) .Then find value of N .( m is mass of electron and e is charge of electron)

An electron accelerated by a potential difference 2.5 kV moves horizontally into a region of space in which there is a downward directed uniform electric field of magnitude 10 kVm^-1. (a) In what direction must a magnetic field be applied so that the electron moves undeflected? Ignore the gravitational force. What is the magnitude of the smallest magnetic field possible in this case? (b) What happens if the charge is a proton that passes through the same combination of fields ?

Uniform electric and magnetic fields are produced in the same direction. An electron moves in such a way that its velocity remains in the direction of electric field. The electron will-

A beam of electrons passes undeflected through uniformly perpendicular electric and magnetic fields. If the electric field is switched off, and the same magnetic field is maintained then the electrons move:

The Betatron was the first important machine for producing high energy electrons. The action of the betatron depends on the same fundamental principle as that of the transformer in which an alternating current applied to a primary coil induces an altermating current usually with higher or lower voltage in the secondary coil. In the betatron secondary coil is replaced by a doughnut shaped vacuum chamber.Electron produced in the doughnut from a hot filament, are given a preliminary acceleration by the application of an electric field having potential difference of 20 kV to 70 kV , when an alternating magnetic field is applied parallel to the axis of the tube, two effects are produced (1) an electromotive force is produced in the electron orbit by the changing magnetic flux that gives an additional energy to the electrons (2) a radial force is produced by the action of magnetic field whose direction is perpendicular to the electron velocity. Which keeps the electron moving in a circular path. Conditions are arranged such that the increasing magnetic field keeps the electron in a circular orbit of constant radius. The mathematical relation between the betatron parameters to ensure the above condition is called BETATRON condition. If the orbit radius of the circular path traced by the electron is R , magnetic field is B , speed of the electron is v , mass of the electron is m , charge on the electron is e and phi is the flux within the orbit of radius R . Then answer the following questions based on the above comprehension. What is the tangential force acting on the electron ?
