TS EAMCET · Physics · Magnetic Effects of Current

A charged particle moves with some initial velocity along the direction of external magnetic field \(B\). Now, if we apply uniform field perpendicular to the magnetic field, then the trajectory of the charged particle will be

  1. A circle
  2. B helix
  3. C cycloid
  4. D straight line
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) helix

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

As charged particle enters region of electric field, its' net velocity is inclined at some angle to \(B\). So, path of charged particle is a helix.
