KVPY2013PhysicsMagnetic Effects of Current
An electron enters a chamber in which a uniform magnetic field is present as shown. Ignore gravity. During its motion inside the chamber
Options
- Athe force on the electron remains constant
- Bthe kinetic energy of the electron remains constant
- Cthe momentum of the electron remains constant
- Dthe speed of the electron increases at a uniform rate
Correct answer
B. the kinetic energy of the electron remains constant
Step-by-step solution
work done =0 Hence kinetic energy = constant
