Physics · Moving Charges and Magnetism
Assertion (A): A charged particle is moving with velocity v in the x-y plane, making an angle θ (0 < θ < π2) with the x-axis. If a uniform magnetic field B is applied along the y-axis, the particle will move in a helical path with its axis parallel to the y-axis. Reason (R): The direction of the magnetic force acting on a charged particle moving in a magnetic field is always perpendicular to both the velocity of the particle and the magnetic field.
