To show: A charged particle moving in a circular field has an
Answer to Problem 22P
The angular momentum of a charged particle is equal to
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
According to the conservation of energy principle, the electrical potential energy is equal to the kinetic energy as it starts accelerating.
Since charged particle moving in a circular path, thus magnetic force applied on it will be perpendicular to it. Now, according to the energy conservation principle,
Since angular momentum is given as
Conclusion:
Thus, the angular momentum
