An electron of charge $e$ and mass $m$ enters normally into a uniform magnetic field $B$. The radius of the circular path of the electron is (a) $\frac{e B}{m y}$ (b) $\frac{e v}{m B}$ (c) $\frac{m v}{e B}$ (d) $\frac{m B}{e v}$
U-Shaped $\quad$ Magnet An electron having a velocity of magnitude $v$ enters a region between the poles of a Ushaped magnet. This region has a uniform magnetic field, $\vec{B}$, pointing out of the paper in the positive $z$ direction as shown in Fig. $29-37$.
(II) An electron enters a uniform magnetic field $B=0.28 mathrm{T}$ at a $45^{circ}$ angle to $vec{mathbf{B}}$ . Determine the radius $r$ and pitch $p$ (distance between loops) of the electron's helical path
