An electron enters a chamber in which a uniform magnetic field is present as shown below. An electric field of appropriate magnitude is also applied,so that the electron travels undeviated without any change in its speed through the chamber. We are ignoring gravity. Then,the direction of the electric field is

  • A
    opposite to the direction of the magnetic field
  • B
    opposite to the direction of the electron's motion
  • C
    normal to the plane of the paper and coming out of the plane of the paper
  • D
    normal to the plane of the paper and into the plane of the paper

Uniform magnetic fields of different strengths ($B_1$ and $B_2$),both normal to the plane of the paper,exist as shown in the figure. $A$ charged particle of mass $m$ and charge $q$,at the interface at an instant,moves into the region $2$ with velocity $v$ and returns to the interface. It continues to move into region $1$ and finally reaches the interface. What is the displacement of the particle during this movement along the interface? (Consider the velocity of the particle to be normal to the magnetic field and $B_2 > B_1$)

$A$ magnetic field set up using Helmholtz coils is uniform in a small region and has a magnitude of $0.75 \;T$. In the same region,a uniform electrostatic field is maintained in a direction normal to the common axis of the coils. $A$ narrow beam of (single species) charged particles all accelerated through $15 \;kV$ enters this region in a direction perpendicular to both the axis of the coils and the electrostatic field. If the beam remains undeflected when the electrostatic field is $9.0 \times 10^{5} \;V \,m^{-1}$,make a simple guess as to what the beam contains. Why is the answer not unique?

In a region of space,a uniform magnetic field $B$ exists in the $y-$direction. $A$ proton is fired from the origin,with its initial velocity $v$ making a small angle $\alpha$ with the $y-$direction in the $yz$ plane. In the subsequent motion of the proton,

An electron accelerated through a potential difference $V$ passes through a uniform transverse magnetic field and experiences a force $F$. If the accelerating potential is increased to $2V$,the electron in the same magnetic field will experience a force:

An electron is projected along the axis of a circular conductor carrying current $I$. The electron will experience:
