A particle of charge +q and mass m moving under the influence of a uniform electric field E^i and a uniform magnetic field B^k follows trajectory from P to Q as shown in figure. The velocities at P and Q are V^i and −2V^j respectively. Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct?
The correct options are
A E=3mv24qa
B Rate of work done by electric field at P is 3mv34a
D Rate of work done by both the fields at Q is zero.
In going from P to Q increase in kinetic energy
12m(2V)2−12mV2=12m(3V2)= Work done by electric field
or, 32mv2=Eq×2a⇒E=3mv24qa
The rate of work done by E at P=force due to E×velocity.
=qEv=q(3mv24qa)v=3mv34a
At q, →v is perpendicular to →E and →B, therefore no work done by the either field. Hence (A), (B) & (D) are correct.
