In an inertial frame of reference, the magnetic force on a moving charged particle is F. Its value in another inertial frame of reference will be

A

remained same

B

changed due to change in the amount of charge

C

changed due to change in velocity of charged particle

D

changed due to change in field direction

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
`vecF=q(vecv xx vecB) therefore F="qv B sin "theta`
which shows magnetic field is velocity dependent due to which it differs from one inertial frame to another.
