PhysicsMoving Charges and MagnetismJEE Advanced 2021

An -particle (mass 4 amu) and a singly charged sulfur ion (mass 32 amu) are initially at rest. They are accelerated through a potential V and then allowed to pass into a region of uniform magnetic field which is normal to the velocities of the particles. Within this region, the -particle and the sulfur ion move in circular orbits of radii and , respectively. The ratio is .

Answer: 4

Solution

After acceleration , so .
