-
A beam of electron passes undeflected through mutually perpendicular electric and magnetic fields. If the electric field is switched off, and the same magnetic field is maintained, the electrons move
-
- in a circular orbit
- along a parabolic path
- along a straight line
- in an elliptical orbit.
Correct Option: A
If the electric field is switched off, and the same magnetic field is maintained, the electrons move in a circular orbit and electron will travel a magnetic field ⊥ to its velocity.
