which of the folloing property of a proton can change while it moves freely in a magnetic field ?

will kineic energy also change because velocity changes so kinetic energy should also change

Open in App

Solution

Magnetic force on a proton can change velocity and momentum.

Magnetic force is always perpendicular to velocity so that it does no work on the charged particle.
The particles kinetic energy and speed thus remain constant
