When charge particle enters in the uniform magnetic field, the magnetic force will be equal:
Correct answer: B. Centripetal force
- A. Electric force
- B. Centripetal force
- C. Magnetic force
- D. Gravitational force
Explanation
The magnetic force provides the necessary centripetal force to the charge particle. So, the charge particle moves in circular path

About Charged Particle in a Magnetic Field
A charged particle moving through a magnetic field experiences the Lorentz force, which is perpendicular to both its velocity and the field. The motion may be circular or helical, with questions involving radius, angular frequency, time period, and work done. A stationary charge feels no magnetic force.
