A charged particle is injected into a uniform magnetic field such that its velocity vector is perpendicular to the magnetic field lines. Ignoring the particle's weight, the particle will

The charged particle will follow a circular path.

Explanation:

Formula for the magnetic force is;

F = qvb sin θ

Where;

where;

q = the charge

v = the velocity

B = the magnetic field

θ = the angle between the velocity and magnetic field

We are told that velocity vector is perpendicular to the magnetic field lines. Thus, angle is 90.

So sin θ = sin 90 = 1

Thus,

F = qvB

Now, since the velocity vector is perpendicular to the magnetic field line,it also means from flemmings right hand rule, that the magnetic force is as well perpendicular to both of them.

Therefore, we have:

- a force that is always perpendicular to the velocity and as well constant in magnitude since magnitude of velocity or magnetic field does not change.

What this statement implies is that the force is acting as a centripetal force, and therefore, the charged particle will be kept in a uniform circular motion.

at positions a, g kinetic energy is maximum.

at position d, potential energy is maximum.

i think the answer would be b
