An electron (mass $9 \times 10^{-31} \ kg$ and charge $1.6 \times 10^{-19} \ C$) moving with speed $v = c/100$ $(c = 3 \times 10^8 \ ms^{-1})$ is injected into a magnetic field $\vec{B}$ of magnitude $9 \times 10^{-4} \ T$ perpendicular to its direction of motion. We wish to apply a uniform electric field $\vec{E}$ together with the magnetic field so that the electron does not deflect from its path. Then:

  • A
    $\vec{E}$ is perpendicular to $\vec{B}$ and its magnitude is $27 \times 10^4 \ V \ m^{-1}$
  • B
    $\vec{E}$ is perpendicular to $\vec{B}$ and its magnitude is $27 \times 10^2 \ V \ m^{-1}$
  • C
    $\vec{E}$ is parallel to $\vec{B}$ and its magnitude is $27 \times 10^2 \ V \ m^{-1}$
  • D
    $\vec{E}$ is parallel to $\vec{B}$ and its magnitude is $27 \times 10^4 \ V \ m^{-1}$

$A$ proton beam is moving from north to south and an electron beam is moving from south to north. Neglecting the Earth's magnetic field,the electron beam will be deflected (assuming zero gravity):

Two parallel beams of electrons moving in the same direction produce a mutual force:

When a proton is released from rest in a room,it starts with an initial acceleration $a_0$ towards west. When it is projected towards north with a speed $v_0$,it moves with an initial acceleration $3a_0$ towards west. The electric and magnetic fields in the room are
