Physics · Moving Charges and Magnetism
A cubical region of space is filled with uniform electric and magnetic fields. An electron enters the cube across one of its faces with velocity v, and a positron enters via the opposite face with velocity -v. At this instant:
- 1the motion of the centre of mass (CM) is determined by B alone.
- 2both particles gain or lose energy at different rates.
- 3the magnetic forces on both particles cause equal accelerations.✓
- 4the electric forces on both particles cause identical accelerations.
Correct answer
the magnetic forces on both particles cause equal accelerations.
