Question
An electron is moving along + x direction. To get it moving on an anticlockwise circular path in x-y plane, a magnetic field applied along
Options
A.+ y-direction
B.+ z-direction
C.- y-derection
D.- z-direction
Solution
Force on electron, 
= q
× 
⇒ F (ĵ) = - ev (î) × B (
) ⇒ 
= 
= q × ⇒ F (ĵ) = - ev (î) × B (
