Question

In a certain region uniform electric field E=Eo^k and magnetic field B=Bo^k are present. At time t=0 a particle of mass m and charge q is given a velocity v=vo^j+vo^k.Find the minimum speed of the particle and the time when it happens so.

Solution

aE=qEom (along negative z-direction)
Electric field will make z-component of velocity zero.At that time speed of the particle will be minimum and that minimum speed is the other component i.e., vo.
This is minimum when:
vz=uz+azi
0=voqEomt
t=mvoqEo
