A particle of charge moving with velocity along the -axis enters a region where a magnetic field of induction is along the -axis, and an electric field of magnitude is along the negative -axis. If the charged particle continues moving along the -axis, the magnitude of is:

  1. A
  2. B
  3. C
  4. D

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

For the particle to move undeflected along the -axis, the net force in the and directions must be zero.The electric force and the magnetic force must cancel each other out.Magnitude-wise, for the transverse components:
