A negatively-charged particle is slowly moving as it enters a region that has a constant magnetic field. If the velocity of the particle is initially parallel to the magnetic field, what will be the subsequent motion of the particle?

Answer:

no deflection and net force is zero. Moving in same direction and with same speed

Step-by-step explanation:

Charge = negative

the angle between the velocity vector and the magnetic field vector is 0°, so the force is given by

F = q v B Sin 0

F = 0

As the force is zero so the charge particle moves with the same velocity and in the same direction.

there is no deflection in the path of negatively charged particle.
