A proton accelerated by a potential difference 500kV flies through a uniform transverse magnetic field 0.1 T. The field is spread on a region of 1.0 cm thickness. The angle through which the proton gets deviated from its original direction is (Proton mass =1.6×10-27 kg and charge of proton=1.6×10-19C )

The correct answer is: 0.01rad

The radius of circular path is,

R=2mKEqB=2×1.6×10-27×1.6×10-16× 500×1031.6×10-16× 0.1=1 m

Since KE=qV

For small value of θ and arc of cirlcle,

θ=arcR=1×10-21=10-2=0.01 rad
