The radius of and alpha-particle moving ...

The radius of and `alpha`-particle moving in a circle in a constant magnetic field is half of the radius of and electron moving in circular path in the same field. The de Broglie wavelength of `alpha`-particle is n times that of the electron. Find n (an integer).

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to analyze the motion of an alpha particle and an electron in a magnetic field and relate their properties. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Motion in a Magnetic Field**: When a charged particle moves in a magnetic field, it experiences a magnetic force that acts as the centripetal force required for circular motion. The magnetic force \( F \) is given by: \[ F = QVB ...
