A particle having the same charge as of electron moves in a ciurcular path of radius 0.5 cm under the influence of a magnetic field 0f 0.5 T. If an electric field of 100 V/m makes it to move in a straight path, then the mass of the particle is (Given charge of electron = 1.6 10 19C)
- A9.1 10 31 kg
- B1.6 10 27 kg

Correct answer: D
- Given data
- Charge magnitude of particle:
- Magnetic field:
- Radius of circular path:
- Electric field:
The particle has the same charge as an electron, so its charge magnitude is .
- Use the condition for straight-line motion in crossed electric and magnetic fields
When the electric field makes the particle move in a straight path, the electric force balances the magnetic force:
So,
- Use circular motion under magnetic field alone
For motion in a circular path under magnetic field,
So,
Substitute the values:
Now simplify step by step:
- Match with options
This corresponds to Option D.
- Comparison with stored answer
Stored correct answer: D
My derived answer: D
So they agree.
