Solution
The correct option is B Vertical motion of charge particle will be SHM.
→F=→FB+→W⇒→W=−mg^j →V=Vx^i−Vy^j
→F=(qVxB−mg)^j+qVyB^im⇒→a=→Fm ax=qBmVy&ay=(qBVxm−g) ddtay=qBmax=(qBm)2Vy⇒d2Vydt2=(qBm)2Vy
which means that the particle is having an SHM motion along y -axis.
As we know that at t=0,ay=g g=V0yw⇒V0y=gw=gmqB Vy=dydt=mgqBsinwt=∫y0dy=mgqB∫t0sinwtdt y=m2g(qB)2(1−coswt)⇒ymax=2m2g(qB)2
which means that the path is cycloid.
