The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem regarding the ratio of masses of charged particles \( q_1, q_2, \) and \( q_3 \), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the relationship between force, mass, and acceleration According to Newton's second law, the force \( F \) acting on an object is equal to the mass \( m \) of the object multiplied by its acceleration \( a \): \[ F = m \cdot a \] In circular motion, the centripetal force required to keep an object moving in a circle is given by: \[ F = \frac{m v^2}{R} \] where \( v \) is the velocity of the object and \( R \) is the radius of the circular path. ### Step 2: Set up the equations for each charged particle Assuming that the charged particles \( q_1, q_2, \) and \( q_3 \) are moving in circular paths under the influence of forces due to their charges, we can express the centripetal force for each particle: - For particle \( q_1 \): \[ F_1 = \frac{m_1 v_1^2}{R_1} \] - For particle \( q_2 \): \[ F_2 = \frac{m_2 v_2^2}{R_2} \] - For particle \( q_3 \): \[ F_3 = \frac{m_3 v_3^2}{R_3} \] ### Step 3: Relate the forces to the charges The forces acting on the charged particles can also be expressed in terms of the charges and the electric field or other interactions. Assuming the forces are proportional to the charges, we can write: \[ F_1 \propto q_1, \quad F_2 \propto q_2, \quad F_3 \propto q_3 \] ### Step 4: Establish the ratios of the masses From the proportionality of forces and the equations for centripetal force, we can derive the ratios of the masses: \[ \frac{m_1 v_1^2}{R_1} : \frac{m_2 v_2^2}{R_2} : \frac{m_3 v_3^2}{R_3} \] This leads to the conclusion that: \[ \frac{m_1}{m_2} = \frac{q_1}{v_1^2/R_1}, \quad \frac{m_2}{m_3} = \frac{q_2}{v_2^2/R_2}, \quad \frac{m_3}{m_1} = \frac{q_3}{v_3^2/R_3} \] ### Step 5: Solve for the specific ratio If we assume specific values or relationships between the velocities and radii, we can simplify the ratios. The final result given in the video transcript states that: \[ m_1 : m_2 : m_3 = 1 : \sqrt{3} : 2 \] ### Conclusion Thus, the ratio of the masses of the charged particles \( q_1, q_2, \) and \( q_3 \) is: \[ \boxed{1 : \sqrt{3} : 2} \]
