A particle of mass $m$ and charge $q$ moves with a constant velocity $v$ along the positive $x$ direction. It enters a region containing a uniform magnetic field $B$ directed along the negative $z$ direction, extending from $x = a$ to $x = b$. The minimum value of $v$ required so that the particle can just enter the region $x > b$ is
A$qb\,B/m$
B$q(b - a)B/m$
C$qa\,B/m$
D$q(b + a)B/2m$

B$q(b - a)B/m$
b (b) In the figure, the $z$-axis points out of the paper, and the magnetic field is directed into the paper, existing in the region between $PQ$ and $RS$. The particle moves in a circular path of radius $r$ in the magnetic field. It can just enter the region $x > b$ for $r \ge (b - a)$
Now, $r = \frac{{mv}}{{qB}} \ge (b - a)$
or $v \ge \frac{{q(b - a)B}}{m}$ $==>$ ${\nu _{\min }} = \frac{{q(b - a)B}}{m}$

A circular coil having $N\,turns$ and radius $r$ carries a current. It is held in the $XZ$ plane in a magnetic field $B\hat i$ . The torque on the coil due to the magnetic field is
A block of mass $m$ $\&$ charge $q$ is released on a long smooth inclined plane magnetic field $B$ is constant, uniform, horizontal and parallel to surface as shown. Find the time from start when block loses contact with the surface.
$A$ particle having charge $q$ enters a region of uniform magnetic field $\vec B$ (directed inwards) and is deflected a distance $x$ after travelling a distance $y$. The magnitude of the momentum of the particle is:
A current $I$ flows in an infinitely long wire with cross section in the form of a semi-circular ring of radius $R$. The magnitude of the magnetic induction along its axis is:
A charge of $4.0 \mu \mathrm{C}$ is moving with a velocity of $4.0 \times 10^6 \mathrm{~ms}^{-1}$ along the positive $\mathrm{y}$-axis under a magnetic field $\vec{B}$ of strength $(2 \hat{k})\ T$. The force acting on the charge is $x \hat{i} N$. The value of $x$ is__________.
