Correct answer: B
- Given data
- Initial kinetic energy of electron:
- Magnetic field:
- Electron enters along the -axis.
- Magnetic field region: from to .
- Screen is away from .
So after leaving the field region at , the electron travels another without field before hitting the screen.
- Speed of the electron
Using we get
Substitute values:
- Radius of circular path inside magnetic field
For motion perpendicular to ,
Substitute:
- Angle turned inside the magnetic field region
The electron enters at and leaves the field at .
Inside the field, it moves on a circular arc of radius . If the angular deflection is , then horizontal advance in the field is
So,
Also,
- Vertical displacement while inside the field
The electron bends downward/upward depending on sign, but we only need magnitude. The displacement from to exit point is
Thus,
- Motion after leaving the field
After exiting, the electron moves in a straight line tangent to the circular path. The tangent makes angle with the -axis.
Remaining horizontal distance to screen:
So additional vertical displacement is
Now,
Hence,
- Total displacement on the screen
Therefore,
So,
This matches Option B.
- Comparison with stored answer
Stored correct answer: B
Derived answer: B
They agree.
