Consider a thin metallic sheet perpendicular to the plane of the paper moving with speed $'v'$ in a uniform magnetic field $B$ going into the plane of the paper (See figure). If charge densities ${\sigma _1}$ and ${\sigma _2}$ are induced on the left and right surfaces, respectively, of the sheet then (ignore fringe effects)

An electron enters a chamber in which a uniform magnetic field is present as shown below.  An electric field of appropriate magnitude is also applied, so that the electron travels undeviated without any change in its speed through the chamber. We are ignoring gravity. Then, the direction of the electric field is
