Uniform electric and magnetic fields are...

Uniform electric and magnetic fields are produced in the same direction. An electron moves in such a way that its velocity remains in the direction of electric field. The electron will-

A

turn towards left

B

turn towards right

C

get decelerated

D

get accelerated

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Magnetic force on electron is zero `( :' vec(B) || vec(V))`
Electric force is opposite to electric field, so it declerated.
