Electric field and magnetic fiedl `n` a region of sace is given by `E=E_0hatj` and `B=B_0hatj`. A particle of specific charge alpha is released from origin with velocity `v=v_0hati`. Then path of particelA. is a circleB. is a helix with uniform pitchC. is a helix with non uniform pitchD. is cycloid

Answer» Correct Answer - C
Electric field (acting along `hatj` direction) will change the velocity component which is parallel to `B=B_0hatj` and `v=v_0hatj` will rotate the particle in a circle. Hence, the net path is helical with variable pitch.
