A charged particle moving in a straight ...

A charged particle moving in a straight line enters a uniform magnetic field `oversetrarrB` at an arbitrary angle with the field direction. What will be its path?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

It will move along a helical path with its axis parallel to the magnetic field `oversetrarrB`, with a constant speed.
