Q13.An electron is moving along the positive x-axis. If uniform magnetic field is applied parallel to the negative z- axis, then A.The electron will experience magnetic force along positive y-axis B.The electron will experience magnetic force along negative y-axis C.The electron will not experience any force in magnetic field D.The electron will continue to move along the positive x-axis E.The electron will move along circular path in magnetic field Choose the correct answer from the option given below: (1) A and E only (2) C and D only (3) B and E only (4) B and D only

What This Question Tests

This question assesses the ability to determine the direction of magnetic force on an electron using the vector cross product or Fleming's left-hand rule, and predicting the trajectory.

Concepts Tested

Lorentz forceRight-hand rule (or Left-hand rule for electron)

Formulas Used

F = q(v × B)

4.11 In a chamber, a uniform magnetic field of 6.5 G (1 G = 10–4 T) is maintained. An electron is shot into the field with a speed of 4.8 × 106 m s–1 normal to the field. Explain why the path of the electron is a circle. Determine the radius of the circular orbit. (e = 1.5 × 10–19 C, me = 9.1×10–31 kg)
