A strong magnetic field is applied on a stationary electron. Then, the electron

Options

  1. Amoves in the direction of the field
  2. Bmoves in an opposite direction of the field
  3. Cremains stationary
  4. Dstarts spinning

Correct answer

C. remains stationary

Step-by-step solution

Force on an electron in an uniform magnetic field is given as F=q v B Since, the particle is stationary, i.e., v=0 F=0 So, the electron remains stationary.
