To solve the problem, we need to analyze the motion of an electron and a proton entering a uniform magnetic field perpendicularly, given that they have the same kinetic energy. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Motion in a Magnetic Field**: When a charged particle enters a magnetic field perpendicularly, it experiences a magnetic force that acts as a centripetal force, causing the particle to move in a circular path. 2. **Equating Magnetic Force and Centripetal Force**: ...
