4.Moving Charges and Magnetism
easy
A uniform electric field and a uniform magnetic field are produced, pointed in the same direction. An electron is projected with its velocity pointing in the same direction
A
The electron will turn to its right
B
The electron will turn to its left
C
The electron velocity will increase in magnitude
D
The electron velocity will decrease in magnitude
(AIEEE-2005)
Solution

(d) Since electron is moving is parallel to the magnetic field, hence magnetic force on it ${F_m} = 0$.
The only force acting on the electron is electric force which reduces it’s speed.
