Solution
The correct option is D Both Assertion and Reason are incorrect Force on a moving charge is given by F=qvBsinθ, so when velocity of charge is parallel to magnetic field , then θ becomes zero and the net force is F=0. Force on a moving charge is dependent on direction or angle between velocity and magnetic field. Both are wrong statement.
