Question

An electron moving with a velocity V1=2^i m/s at a point in a magnetic field experiences a force F1=2^jN. If the electron is moving with a velocity V2=2^j m/s at the same point, it experiences a force F2=+2^iN. The force the electron would experience if it were moving with a velocity V3=2^k m/s at the same point is?

Solution

The correct option is A zero
Force acting on the particle =q.−−−V×B
2^iq×B=2^j
Thus magnetic field B is in +ve z direction, viz. ^k. Hence electric force on the particle is 0
Thus force on the electron experienced when moving with a velocity of 2^k will be 0
