Question

The force experienced by a particle of charge q moving with a velocity v in a uniform magnetic field B is given by
$\overrightarrow{F}=q(\overrightarrow{V}\times \overrightarrow{B})$
Statement I: The vectors F and V are perpendicular to each other
Statement II: The vectors V and B can have any angle between them
Statement III: The vectors F and B are perpendicular to each other

• A. All the statements are true
• B. Statement I and II are true only
• C. Statement I and III are true only
• D. Statement II and III are true only

Answer 1

The correct option is A All the statements are true

Since F is derived by the cross product on V and B. So, it will always be Perpendicular to each other.
