Statement
10.1.2. An electron accelerated by a voltage of 200 V moves in the Earth’s magnetic field, the induction of which is 70 µT. Find the radius of the circle along which the electron moves, if its velocity is perpendicular to the Earth’s magnetic field.
Solution
Inside the magnetic field, the electron moves following a circular trajectory with constant speed.
