Consider a long thin conducting wire carrying a uniform current I. A particle having mass " M " and charge " q " is released at a distance " a " from the wire with a speed v_o along the direction of current in the wire. The particle gets attracted to the wire due to magnetic force. The particle turns round when it is at distance x from the wire. The value of x is [ μ_0 is vacuum permeability]
