Question 12





A charged particle of mass g is moving at a speed of m/s. Suddenly, a uniform magnetic field of magnitude T in a direction perpendicular to the particle’s velocity is turned on and then turned off in a time interval of s. During this time interval, the magnitude and direction of the velocity of the particle undergo a negligible change, but the particle moves by a distance of m in a direction perpendicular to the velocity. Find the charge on the particle.
