Answer the following questions:
$(a)$ $A$ magnetic field that varies in magnitude from point to point but has a constant direction (east to west) is set up in a chamber. $A$ charged particle enters the chamber and travels undeflected along a straight path with constant speed. What can you say about the initial velocity of the particle?
$(b)$ $A$ charged particle enters an environment of a strong and non-uniform magnetic field varying from point to point both in magnitude and direction,and comes out of it following a complicated trajectory. Would its final speed equal the initial speed if it suffered no collisions with the environment?
$(c)$ An electron travelling west to east enters a chamber having a uniform electrostatic field in north to south direction. Specify the direction in which a uniform magnetic field should be set up to prevent the electron from deflecting from its straight line path.

$A$ charged particle of mass $m$ and charge $q$ moving under the influence of a uniform electric field $E\hat{i}$ and a uniform magnetic field $B\hat{k}$ follows a trajectory from point $P$ to $Q$ as shown in the figure.
