Uniform magnetic fields of different strengths (B1 and B2), both normal to the plane of the paper exist as shown in the figure. A charged particle of mass m and charge q, at the interface at an instant, moves into the region 2 with velocity v and returns to the interface. It continues to move into region 1 and finally reaches the interface. What is the displacement of the particle during this movement along the interface? [figure] (Consider the velocity of the particle to be normal to the magnetic field and B2 > B1)

A monochromatic light of wavelength is incident on a metallic plate having work function . An electron, emitted normally to the plate from a point A with maximum kinetic energy, enters a constant magnetic field, perpendicular to the initial velocity of electron. The electron passes through a curve and hits back the plate at a point B. The distance between A and B is : (Given : The magnitude of charge of an electron is e and mass is m, h is Planck's constant and c is velocity of light. Take the magnetic field exists throughout the path of electron)

- 0
- 0 1 + e2 B02 t2m2
- 0 1 + e2 B02 t2m2
Consider a long thin conducting wire carrying a uniform current I. A particle having mass "m" and charge "q" is released at a distance "a" from the wire with a speed v0 along the direction of current in the wire. The particle gets attracted to the wire due to magnetic force. The particle turns round when it is at distance x from the wire. The value of x is [ 0 is vacuum permeability]
