A beam of cathode rays is subjected to crossed electric $$\left( E \right)$$ and magnetic fields $$\left( B \right).$$ The fields are adjusted such that the beam is not deflected. The specific charge of the cathode rays is given by
As the electron beam is not deflected, then $${F_m} = {F_e}\,\,{\text{or}}\,\,Bev = Ee$$
or $$v = \frac{E}{B}\,......\left( {\text{i}} \right)$$
As the electron moves from cathode to anode, its potential energy at the cathode appears as its kinetic energy at the anode. If $$V$$ is the potential difference between the anode and cathode, then potential energy of the electron at cathode $$= eV.$$ Also, kinetic energy of the electron at anode $$ = \frac{1}{2}m{v^2}.$$ According to law of conservation of energy.
$$\frac{1}{2}m{v^2} = eV\,\,{\text{or}}\,\,v = \sqrt {\frac{{2eV}}{m}} \,.......\left( {{\text{ii}}} \right)$$
From Eqs. (i) and (ii), we have
$$\sqrt {\frac{{2eV}}{m}} = \frac{E}{B}\,\,{\text{or}}\,\,\frac{e}{m} = \frac{{{E^2}}}{{2V{B^2}}}$$

A magnetic needle of magnetic moment $$6.7 \times {10^{ - 2}}A{m^2}$$ and moment of inertia $$7.5 \times {10^{ - 6}}kg\,{m^2}$$ is performing simple harmonic oscillations in a magnetic field of $$0.01 T.$$ Time taken for 10 complete oscillations is :
Given : Magnetic moment, $$M = 6.7 \times {10^{ - 2}}A{m^2}$$
Magnetic field, $$B = 0.01T$$
Moment of inertia, $$I = 7.5 \times {10^{ - 6}}Kg{m^2}$$
Using, $$T = 2\pi \sqrt {\frac{I}{{MB}}} $$
$$ = 2\pi \sqrt {\frac{{7.5 \times {{10}^{ - 6}}}}{{6.7 \times {{10}^{ - 2}} \times 0.01}}} = \frac{{2\pi }}{{10}} \times 1.06\,s$$
Time taken for 10 complete oscillations
$$\eqalign{
& t = 10T = 2\pi \times 1.06 \cr
& = 6.6568 \approx 6.65\,s \cr} $$

The magnetic field $$dB$$ due to a small element at a distance $$r$$ and carrying current $$i$$ is
A.
$$dB = \frac{{{\mu _0}}}{{4\pi }}i\left( {\frac{{dl \times r}}{r}} \right)$$
B.
$$dB = \frac{{{\mu _0}}}{{4\pi }}{i^2}\left( {\frac{{dl \times r}}{{{r^2}}}} \right)$$
C.
$$dB = \frac{{{\mu _0}}}{{4\pi }}{i^2}\left( {\frac{{dl \times r}}{r}} \right)$$
D.
$$dB = \frac{{{\mu _0}}}{{4\pi }}i\left( {\frac{{dl \times r}}{{{r^3}}}} \right)$$
According to Biot-Savart law, the magnetic field induction $$dB$$ (also called magnetic flux density) at a point $$P$$ due to current element
depends upon the factors as stated below.
(i) $$dB \propto i$$
(ii) $$dB \propto dl$$
(iii) $$dB \propto \sin \theta $$
(iv) $$dB \propto \frac{1}{{{r^2}}}$$
Combining these factors, we get magnitude of $$dB$$
i.e., $$dB = \frac{{{\mu _0}}}{{4\pi }} \cdot \frac{{i\,dl\sin \theta }}{{{r^2}}}$$
In vector form,
$$dB = \frac{{{\mu _0}}}{{4\pi }}i\frac{{\left( {dl \times r} \right)}}{{{r^3}}}\,\,\,\left[ {\frac{{{\mu _0}}}{{4\pi }} = {{10}^{ - 7}}T{\text{ - }}m/A} \right]$$
