A particle of charge q and mass m is accelerated from rest through potential difference V after which it encounters uniform magnetic field B. Follow below steps to find the radius of its circular orbit_ Hint After being accelerated through potential difference V _ what is the speed v of the charged particle? Hint for (a) (Give your answer in terms of given quantities above; be careful to distinguish V the voltage from v the speed. To enter (for example) , type in "sqrt(e)" or you may use exponent notation, "x(1/2)" for €? Inside the region of magnetic field B, assuming the velocity U is perpendicular to the magnetic field B, what force does the charged particle experience? Hint for (b) The charged particle experiences force of magnitude of given variables) , in the direction Select an answer (answer in terms The force you found in (b) above becomes the centripetal force for the charge as it undergoes a uniform circular motion_ What is the radius of curvature of the circular motion? Hint for (c) The radius of curvature is (answer in terms of given variables)
