MCQ
A particle moves in a region having a uniform magnetic field and a parallel, uniform electric field. At some instant, the velocity of the particle is perpendicular to the field direction. The path of the particle will be:
  • A
    A straight line.
  • B
    A circle.
  • C
    A helix with uniform pitch.
  • ✓
    A helix with nonuniform pitch.
✓

Answer

Correct option: D.
A helix with nonuniform pitch.


$\text{F}=\text{q}\vec{\text{E}}+\text{q}(\vec{\text{V}}\times\vec{\text{B}})$
$\text{F}=\text{q}\vec{\text{E}}$ provides the acceleration in 'x' direction.
$\text{F}_2=\text{}\text{q}(\vec{\text{V}}\times\vec{\text{B}})$ provides the centripetal Force.
The path of the particle will be ahelix with nonuniform pitch.

A mass $M$ is suspended from a spring of negligible mass. The spring is pulled a little and then released so that the mass executes simple harmonic oscillations with a time period $T$. If the mass is increased by m then the time period becomes $\left( {\frac{5}{4}T} \right)$. The ratio of $\frac{m}{{M}}$ is
