Chapter , Problem 39

(choose chapter or problem)

A proton is at rest at the plane vertical boundary of aregion containing a uniform vertical magnetic field B(Fig. P19.39). An alpha particle moving horizontallymakes a head-on elastic collision with the proton.Immediately after the collision, both particles enterthe magnetic field, moving perpendicular to the directionof the field. The radius of the protons trajectory isR. The mass of the alpha particle is four times that ofthe proton, and its charge is twice that of the proton.Find the radius of the alpha particles trajectory.
