A uniform electric field and a uniform magnetic field are acting along the same direction in a certain region. If an electron is projected along the direction of the fields with a certain velocity then
A
its velocity will increase
B
its velocity will decrease
C
it will turn towards left of direction of motion
D
it will turn towards right of direction of motion
Text Solution
Verified by Experts
The correct Answer is:
B
Due to electric field , it experiences force and decelerates i.e. its velocity decreases .
