Ionized hydrogen atoms and -particles with same momenta enter perpendicular to a constant magnetic field, . The ratio of their radii of their paths will be:
To solve this problem, we need to use the formula for the radius of the path of a charged particle moving in a magnetic field.The radius of the path of a charged particle in a magnetic field is given by:where:• is the momentum of the particle,• is the charge of the particle,• is the magnetic field.Given that both the ionized hydrogen atom and the -particle have the same momentum, we can write:The charge of an ionized hydrogen atom (proton) is and the charge of an -particle is Now, let's find the ratio of their radii:Simplifying the expression:Substitute the values of the charges:Therefore, the ratio of the radii of their paths is This corresponds to Option 1.
