Given below are two statements:
Statement-I: A charge is moving in a uniform magnetic field. The charge may experience no magnetic force.
Statement-II: Kinetic energy of a charged particle moving in a uniform magnetic field may change.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsA
If velocity of the charged particle is parallel to magnetic field then particle will not experience any force.
Magnetic force is perpendicular to velocity so speed does not change. Therefore kinetic energy does not change.
