Question

An electron and a proton are projected in a uniform magnetic field with equal kinetic energies in a direction perpendicular to the field. Then  

Solution

Correct option is

The electron trajectory will be more curved than the proton trajectory

In terms of kinetic energy ,

                

Since K, q and B are the same for both particle .

Now, 

        

Or, 

                 

Since m << MV << v. Hence the radius of the circular path of the proton is much larger than that of the electron.
