  4. D Zero.
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) Zero.

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\( \vec{F} = q(\vec{v} \times \vec{B}) \) If \( \vec{v} \parallel \vec{B} \), then \( \vec{v} \times \vec{B} = 0 \). \( \vec{F} = 0 \) \( \vec{a} = \frac{\vec{F}}{m} = 0 \) Zero.
