What is the work done by the magnetic field on a moving charged particle?(a) Maximum(b) Minimum(c) Depends on the strength of the magnetic field(d) ZeroI got this question during an online exam.This intriguing question originated from Magnetic Force topic in chapter Moving Charges and Magnetism of Physics – Class 12

Answer»

Right answer is (d) Zero

The explanation is: As the magnetic FORCE acts in a direction perpendicular to the direction of the velocity or the direction of MOTION of the charged particle, so the work DONE is zero.

W = F × dl × cos 90^°

W = 0.
