A particle having mass m and charge `q` is released from the origin in a region in which ele field and magnetic field are given by `B=-B_0hatj`and `E=E_0hatk`. Find the y- component of the velocity and the speed of the particle as a function of it z-coordinate. |

Answer» Correct Answer - B work is done only by electrostatic force. Hence, from work energy theorem. `=1/2mv^2=` work done by electrostatic force only `=(qE_0)z` or speed `v=sqrt((2qE_0z)/m)` particle rotates in a plane perpendicular in B. i.e. in xy-plane only. Hence `v_y=0` |
