[UPSC IFoS 2024] Atomic Physics (Q18, 15M)

A beam of hydrogen atoms in a Stern-Gerlach experiment obtained from an oven heated to a temperature of 400\text{ K} passes through a magnetic field of length 1\text{ m} and having a gradient of 10\text{ T/m} perpendicular to the beam. Calculate the transverse deflection of an atom of the beam at a point where the beam leaves the field. The value of Bohr magneton \mu_B is 9\cdot 27 \times 10^{-24}\text{ A m}^2 and the Boltzmann constant k is 1\cdot 38 \times 10^{-23}\text{ J/K}.
