Answer» An electron at rest experiences no force in the magnetic field The gain in the KE of the electron moving at right ANGLES to the magnetic field is zero When an electron is shot at right angles to the electric field, it traces a parabolic path An electron moving in the direction of the electric field loses KE. Solution :Electron is NEGATIVELY chargned, HENCE experience electrosatic force opposite to the direction of electric field. As a result, an electron moving in the direction of electric field losses KINETIC energy.
