Suppose a particle with mass m and charge q moves with speed v through a uniform magnetic field B perpendicular to the particle's motion. Obtain an expression for (a) the radius R and (b) the period T of the particle's orbit in terms of m, q, v, and B. What effect(s) if any, does increasing the particle's speed have on its orbit? Explain. Suppose a particle with mass m and charge q moves with speed v through a uniform magnetic field B perpendicular to the particle's motion.
