A positively charged particle with specific charge `sigma` leaves the origin with a velocity u directed along positive x direction. The entire space has a uniform electric field (E) and magnetic field (B) directed along the positive y direction. Find the angle that the velocity of the particle makes with y direction at the instant it crosses the y axis for `n^(th)` time.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
`alpha =tan^(-1) ((uB)/(2pinE))`
