Write an expression for the force expereinced by a charged particle moving in a uniform magnetic field B.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`F = bqv sin theta`
where F = Magnetic force acting on charged particle
q = Charge on the particle
v = Velocity of charged particle
`theta` = Angle between velocity vector and magnetic field.
