Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If magnetic field exists parallel to the direction of motion of electron , no force will act on the electrons and hence there will be no deflection in them .

In such cases , the magnitude of magnetic field is immaterial . No matter how high or low magnitude of magnetic field be , if it is parallel to the velocity of electron , it will not be deflected as the force created on them will be zero.

Only in case magnetic field makes some angle with the direction of velocity , force will be created and electron will be deflected .
