JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 4. Moving charges and magnetism

A current carrying is placed vertically and a particle of mass m with charge Q is released from rest. The particle moves along the axis of solenoid. If \(g\) is acceleration due to gravity then the acceleration (a) of the charged particle will satisfy :

  1. A \( a = g \)
  2. B \( a > g \)
  3. C \( a = 0 \)
  4. D \( 0 < a < g \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \( a = g \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Since the solenoid is placed vertically, the magnetic field inside the solenoid will be either along - y or + y axis. ⇒ Particle will gain velocity along -y axis. \(\Rightarrow \quad \overrightarrow{ F }_{ B }= q (\overrightarrow{ v } \times \overrightarrow{ B })\)…
