Question

Answer the following questions:
How does the path followed by the charge get affected if its velocity has a component parallel to $\overrightarrow{B}$?

Answer 1

If component of velocity of charge particle id parallel to direction of the force of electric field, then the force experienced due to the component will be zero.

It is because $F=qVB\sin \theta$

Now $\sin \theta =0$

So, $F=0$

Hence particle will move in a straight line.
