A charged particle enters a region of uniform magnetic field at an angle of ` 85^@` to the magnetic line of force . The path of the particle is a circle .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The velocity component `v_2` will be responsible in moving
the charged particle in a circle.

The velocity component `v_1` will be responsible in moving the
charged particle in horizontal direction.
Therefore, the charged
particle will travel in a helical path.
