WBJEE · Physics · Magnetic Effects of Current
A stream of electrons and protons are directed towards a narrow slit in a screen (see figure). The intervening region has a uniform electric field (vertically downwards) and a uniform magnetic field \(\mathbf{B}\) (out of the plane of the figure) as shown. Then 
- A electrons and protons with speed \(\frac{|\mathrm{E}|}{|\mathbf{B}|}\) will pass through the slit
- B protons with speed \(|\mathrm{E}| /|\mathrm{B}|\) will pass through the slit, electrons of the same speed will not
- C neither electrons nor protons will go through the sit irrespective of their speed
- D electrons will always be deflected upwards irrespective of their speed
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) electrons will always be deflected upwards irrespective of their speed
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
of their speed. And electrons will always be deflected upwards irrespective of their speed. So, (c) and (d) are correct options.
