MCQ
A beam consisting of protons and electrons moving at the same speed goes through a thin region in which there is a magnetic field perpendicular to the beam. The protons and the electrons:
  • A
    Will go undeviated.
  • B
    Will be deviated by the same angle and will not separate.
  • Will be deviated by different angles and hence separate.
  • D
    Will be deviated by the same angle but will separate.

Answer

Correct option: C.
Will be deviated by different angles and hence separate.
c. Will be deviated by different angles and hence separate.
Explanation:
$\overrightarrow{ F }= q ( V \times B )$
Charge proton is poritive $= e$
$F_p=e v B$
Charge of electron is negative $=-e$
$F_e=-e v B$
They will be deviated by different angles and Hence separate.

Assuming that no charge can flow across the gap, the end of ring which has excess of positive charge and the magnitude of induced $e.m.f$. in the ring are respectively
Assertion : Electric lines of force never cross each other.

Reason : Electric field at a point superimpose to give one resultant electric field.
