An electron moving with a speed u along ...

An electron moving with a speed u along the positive x-axis at `y=0` enters a region of uniform magnetic field which exists to the right of y-axis. The electron exits from the region after some time with the speed v at coordinate y, then

A

`vgtu,ylt0`

B

`v=u,ygt0`

C

`vgtu,ygt0`

D

`v=u,ylt0`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

Magnetic force does not change the speed of charged particle. Hence, `v=u`. Further magnetic field on the electron in the given condition is along negative y-axis in the starting. Or it describes a circular path in clockwise direction. Hence, when it exits from the field, `ylt0`
