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 $v$

An electric field of $1500\, V/m$ and a magnetic field of $0.40\, weber/metre^2$ act on  a moving electron. The minimum uniform speed along a straight line the electron could  have is

An electron enters the space between the plates of a charged capacitor as shown. The charge density on the plate is $\sigma $. Electric intensity in the space between the plates is $E$. A uniform magnetic field $B$ also exists in that space perpendicular to the direction of $E$. The electron moves perpendicular to both $\vec E$ and $\vec B$ without any change in direction. The time taken by the electron to travel a distance $\ell $ is the space is
