A charged particle is moved along a magnetic field line. The magnetic force on the particle is

A

perpendicular to the velocity only

B

perpendicular to the magnetic field only

C

perpendicular to both the velocity and the magnetic field

D

Zero

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
When a charged particle is projected in the direction of a magnetic field, no magnetic force acts on it. Hence, option (d) is correct.
