The correct Answer is:
To determine which quantities remain constant for a charged particle moving in a circular path under the influence of a magnetic field, we can analyze each option step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Kinetic Energy (K.E.)**: - The work done on the charged particle by the magnetic field is zero because the magnetic force is always perpendicular to the velocity of the particle. - Since work done is zero, the change in kinetic energy is also zero. Therefore, the kinetic energy remains constant. - **Conclusion**: K.E. is constant. 2. **Velocity**: - The velocity of the particle is a vector quantity that has both magnitude and direction. While the magnitude of the velocity (speed) may remain constant, the direction of the velocity continuously changes as the particle moves in a circular path. - Since velocity is defined as a vector, and its direction is changing, the velocity itself is not constant. - **Conclusion**: Velocity is not constant. 3. **Time Period (T)**: - The time period of the circular motion can be derived from the relationship between the radius (r), mass (m), charge (q), and magnetic field (B). - The time period T is given by the formula \( T = \frac{2\pi m}{qB} \). Here, m, q, and B are constants, which means T is also constant. - **Conclusion**: Time period is constant. 4. **Momentum (p)**: - Momentum is given by the product of mass and velocity, \( p = mv \). Although mass remains constant, the velocity is changing due to the changing direction. - Since velocity is not constant, the momentum will also not be constant. - **Conclusion**: Momentum is not constant. ### Final Answer: The quantities that remain constant are: - Kinetic Energy (K.E.) - Time Period (T) Thus, the correct options are i) K.E. and iii) Time Period.

Assertion When a charged particle moves perpendicular to a uniform magnetic field then its momentum remains constant. Reason Magnetic force acts perpendicular to the velocity of the particle.

Statement 1: A charged particle undergoes non-rectilinear motion in a constant magnetic field. The only force acting on the particle is the magnetic force. Then kinetic energy of this particle remains constant but momentum of the particle does not remains constant. Statement 2: A force that always acts on the particle in direction perpendicular to its velocity does no work on the particle. But whenever a force acts on the particle, momentum of the particle does not remains constant.
