A particle (q = -4.0 μC, m = 5.0 mg) moves in a uniform magnetic field. If the magnetic field strength is B,
the speed of the particle is v, and the angle that the particle’s velocity makes with the magnetic field direction
is q, in which of the following cases would the magnitude of the particle’s acceleration be the largest?

A. v = 2.0 km/s, B = 9.1 mT, q = 90°
B. v = 2.0 km/s, B = 8.2 mT, q = 90°
C. v = 6.0 km/s, B = 8.2 mT, q = 50°
D. v = 6.0 km/s, B = 8.2 mT, q = 0°
E. v = 6.0 km/s, B = 9.1 mT, q = 50°

A charged particle (q, m) enters a uniform magnetic field B (extends upto a length w) at right angles with speed v . The speed of the particle in magnetic field does not change. But it gets deviated in the magnetic field in a circular path and leaves the magnetic field with a angle theeta. Its lateral displacement is D. Show that D= mv/qB(1-(1-(qbw/mv)^2)^1/2)
