Answer:
(a) The particle goes undeflected so it is not experiencing
magnetic force.Using. It is clear
that the initial velocity is either
parallel or anti-parallel to i.e.,
is either or .
(b) Yes, the final speed is equal to the
initial speed because the magnetic force can change the direction of but
the magnitude of cannot be
changed by it.
(c) The electron has a tendency to move
towards north because of the positive polarity of the field existing there.
To keep the electron undeflected, the
magnetic force should act towards south. Using Fleming's left hand rule and
considering the conventional direction of flow of charge from east to west we
get direction of magnetic field along the vertical in downward direction.
