An electron is moving along the positive \(x\)-axis. If the uniform magnetic field is applied parallel to the negative \(z\)-axis. then \(A.\) The electron will experience magnetic force along positive \(y\)-axis \(B.\) The electron will experience magnetic force along negative \(y\)-axis \(C.\) The electron will not experience any force in magnetic field \(D.\) The electron will continue to move along the positive \(x\)-axis \(E.\) The electron will move along circular path in magnetic field Choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(B\) and \(E\) only
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\overrightarrow{ F }=- e (\overrightarrow{ v } \times \overrightarrow{ B })\)
Force will be along \(-ve\) \(y-\)axis.
As magnetic force is \(\perp\) to velocity, path of electron must be a circle.
