Q52 / 75 · JEE Main 2020 (07 Jan Shift 2) · Physics
A particle of mass and charge has an initial velocity . If an electric field and magnetic field act on the particle, its speed will double after a time
- A
- B
- Correct answerC
- D
Solution
Acceleration produced by electric field,
After time , velocity of the particle,
So, speed of the particle,
Now, given after time , so
So, time interval,
Here, we must note that no change in magnitude of velocity is caused by a perpendicular magnetic field. So, we are not taking effect of magnetic field while calculating change in speed.
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'C'.
