Magnetic Effects of Electric Current — Science STD 10 — Question

CBSE BoardEnglish MediumSTD 10ScienceMagnetic Effects of Electric Current1 Mark
Question
Force on a charge is maximum when the velocity and magnetic field are in perpendicular direction. [True/False]
✓

Answer

True.

Explanation:

The magnetic force is perpendicular to the velocity, so velocity changes in direction but not magnitude. The result is uniform circular motion. The component of the velocity perpendicular to the magnetic field produces a magnetic force perpendicular to both this velocity and the field.
