4.Moving Charges and Magnetism
easy

A proton (or charged particle) moving with velocity $v$ is acted upon by electric field $E$ and magnetic field $B$. The proton will move undeflected if

A

$E$ is perpendicular to $B$

B

$E$ is parallel to $v$ and perpendicular to $B$

C

$E$, $B$ and $v$ are mutually perpendicular and $v = \frac{E}{B}$

D

$E$ and $B$ both are parallel to $v$

Solution

(c) In this case $|\overrightarrow {{F_e}} |\; = \;|\overrightarrow {{F_m}} |$ and both forces are opposite to each other.
