Explanation:

Particle mass = m

On a particle, the positive charge = q

Magnetic field = B

Uniform velocity = v

(a) The circular arc radius explained in the magnetic field by the particle is

We understand that,

r = mvqB

(b) The subtended angle by the centre arc

To arc ABC, the line MAB is tangent, so the angle defined by the charged particle,

∠MAO = 90°

Now, ∠NAC = 90°

OAC = OCA = θ

Then, AOC =

180°− (θ + θ) = π − 2θ

(c) The time taken by the particle to be in the magnetic field

Inside the magnetic field, the distance enclosed by the particle,

l = rθ .

Using r=mvqB

(d) Assume that the particle’s charge q is negative, then

(i) Circular arc radius, r = mvqB.

(ii) Within the magnetic field remains the arc centre. Consequently, the subtended angle = π + 2θ

(iii) Likewise, inside the magnetic field, to cover the path, the time taken by the particle =  mqB(π+2θ).
