NEETPhysicsMoving Charges and MagnetismMCQ+4 / −1
An electron (mass and charge ) moving with speed speed of light) is injected into a magnetic field of magnitude perpendicular to its direction of motion. We wish to apply an uniform electric field together with the magnetic field so that the electron does not deflect from its path. Then (speed of light )
- Ais parallel to and its magnitude is
- Bis parallel to and its magnitude is
- Cis perpendicular to and its magnitude is
- Dis perpendicular to and its magnitude is

Correct answer: D
For no deflection of electron, $\vec{F}_B=\vec{F}_E$

$$\begin{aligned} \& -e(\vec{v} \times \vec{B})=-e \vec{E} \\ \& \Rightarrow \vec{E}=\vec{v} \times \vec{B} \Rightarrow \vec{E} \perp \vec{B} \\ \& E=v B=\frac{c}{100} \times 9 \times 10^{-4} \\ \& =\frac{3 \times 10^8}{100} \times 9 \times 10^{-4} \\ \& =27 \times 10^2 \mathrm{~V} \mathrm{~m}^{-1} \end{aligned}$$
