A charged particle with charge q enters a region of constant, uniform and mutually orthogonal fields straight E with rightwards arrow on top space and space straight B with rightwards arrow on top, with a velocity straight v with rightwards arrow on top perpendicular to both straight E with rightwards arrow on top space and space straight B with rightwards arrow on top , and comes out without any change in magnitude or direction of straight v with rightwards arrow on top .Then

  • straight v with rightwards arrow on top space equals space straight E with rightwards arrow on top space straight x space straight B with rightwards arrow on top space divided by straight B squared
  • straight v with rightwards arrow on top space equals space straight B with rightwards arrow on top space straight x space straight E with rightwards arrow on top divided by straight B squared
  • straight v with rightwards arrow on top space equals space straight E with rightwards arrow on top space straight x space straight B with rightwards arrow on top divided by straight E squared
  • straight v with rightwards arrow on top space equals space straight B with rightwards arrow on top space straight x space straight E with rightwards arrow on top divided by straight E squared

Solution

A.

straight v with rightwards arrow on top space equals space straight E with rightwards arrow on top space straight x space straight B with rightwards arrow on top space divided by straight B squared
