A proton and helium necleus are shot into a magnetic field at right angles to the field with same kinetic energy. Then the ratio of their radii is

Answer»

both acquire same energy
deuterium accelerates FASTER
helium accelerates faster
neither of them is accelerated

Solution :Deuterium `""_(1)^(2)D`and helium `""_(2)^(4)He` are both NEUTRAL. Only ions are accelerated by an electric field or magnetic field when ions is MOVING perpendicular to the magnetic field. Therefore both will not be accelerated.
