The kinetic energy of a charged particle...

The kinetic energy of a charged particle moving in a uniform magnetic field does not change. Why?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
T
Magnetic force acting on a charged particle is always perpendicular to its velocity or work done by a magnetic force is always zero. Hence, a magnetic force cannot change the energy of charged particle.
