Motion in Magnetic Field

Home | Physics 2 | Magnetism | Motion in Magnetic Field

An electron is accelerated from rest through a potential difference of 1200 V. It then enters a region where a magnetic field of 80 μ\muT is oriented perpendicular to the electrons motion. What is the radius of the electron's motion in the magnetic field?
