If an electron is moving in the direction of the magnetic field $\overrightarrow{B}$ with a velocity $\overrightarrow{v}$,then the force on the electron is:

  • A
    Zero
  • B
    $e(\overrightarrow{v} \cdot \overrightarrow{B})$
  • C
    $e(\overrightarrow{v} \times \overrightarrow{B})$
  • D
    None of these

${H^ + },\,H{e^ + }$ and ${O^{ + + }}$ ions having same kinetic energy pass through a region of space filled with a uniform magnetic field $B$ directed perpendicular to the velocity of the ions. The masses of the ions ${H^ + },\,H{e^ + }$ and ${O^{ + + }}$ are respectively in the ratio $1:4:16$. As a result:

An electron enters the space between the plates of a charged capacitor as shown. The surface charge density on the plates is $\sigma$. The electric field intensity in the space between the plates is $E$. $A$ uniform magnetic field $B$ also exists in the space,perpendicular to the direction of $E$. The electron moves perpendicular to both $\overrightarrow{E}$ and $\overrightarrow{B}$ without any change in direction. The time taken by the electron to travel a distance $l$ in the space is:
