$A$ charged particle moves with some initial velocity along the direction of an external magnetic field $B$. Now,if we apply a uniform electric field $E$ perpendicular to the magnetic field,then the trajectory of the charged particle will be

  • A
    circle
  • B
    helix
  • C
    cycloid
  • D
    straight line
