For a positively charged particle moving in a $x-y$ plane initially along the $x$-axis, there is a sudden change in its path due to the presence of electric and/or magnetic fields beyond $P$. The curved path is shown in the $x-y$ plane and is found to be non-circular. Which one of the following combinations is possible

  • B

    $\overrightarrow E = ai;\,\overrightarrow B = c\hat k\, + a\hat i$

  • C

    $\overrightarrow E = 0;\,\overrightarrow B = c\hat j\, + b\hat k$

  • D

    $\overrightarrow E = ai;\,\overrightarrow B = c\hat k\, + b\hat j$
