JEE Main 2025 — 2 April, Morning Shift — Question 59
A monochromatic light is incident on a metallic plate having work function . An electron, emitted
normally to the plate from a point with maximum kinetic energy, enters a constant magnetic field, perpendicular to the initial velocity of electron. The electron passes through a curve and hits back the
plate at a point . The distance between and is: (Given: The magnitude of charge of an
electron is and mass is is Planck's constant and is velocity of light. Take the magnetic
field exists throughout the path of electron)
