Question

The force on a charged particle moving perpendicularly in an external magnetic field can be represented by the formula

  1. qvB
  2. qv/B
  3. qB/v
  4. q/vB

hintHint:

magnetic force, attraction or repulsion that arises between electrically charged particles because of their motion

The correct answer is: qvB


    The force on a charged particle moving in magnetic field is given by

    F=qv×B
    • When the velocity is perpendicular to the magnetic field, the magnetic force is perpendicular to both of them, and particle moves in circle with constant speed v.
