Questions  

In a gravity free region of space a charged particle is projected. If the path followed by the particle is a circle, then

a
E= and B=0
b
E≠0 and B≠0
c
E=0, B≠0 and uniform
d
E=0 and B≠0 and B→ is non-uniform

detailed solution

Correct option is C

If E = 0 and B ≠ 0 and uniform, then perpendicular to B→, then magnetic force QV→×B→ acting on the particle is always perpendicular to the direction of motion and the trajectory of the particle is a circle.
