The correct option is
B →E is not parallel to
→B
Case-I:
→E||→B and
→V||→E
Now
−→FB=q(→v×→B)=qvBsinθ=0 (as
sin0∘=0)
only electric force acts on it and which accelerates the charge particle along the direction of the force.
−→FE=qE and
ay=qEm
∴ charge particle can go undeflected. Only velocity will increase with time
∴ Option (a) is correct.
Case-II:
→E is not parallel to
→B
−→FB=q(v^i×B^k)=qvB(−^j) and
−→FE=q→E^j
Hence, net force on the charge is zero and it will move with the same velocity in the same direction.
∴ Option (b) can also be correct.
Case-III:
→v||→B but
→E is not parallel to
→B
−→FB=q(→v×→B)=qvBsinθ=0
only electric force acts on it and which accelerates the charge particle along the direction of the force.
−→FE=qE and
ay=qEm
∴ deflection will occur, hence option (c) is wrong
Case-IV:
→E||→B but
→v is not parallel to
→B
Now
−→FB=q(→v×→B)=q(vsinθ^i×B^j)=qvBsinθ^k
−→FE=qE^j
Motion of the charge particle will be resultant of
−→FE & −→FB
∴ Deviaton will occur.
∴ Option (d) is also wrong.
Hence, options (a) and (b) are the correct answers.
