Question
In a certain arrangement, a proton does not get deflected while moving through a magnetic field region. Under what condition is it possible?

Answer

  1. F = 0
Explanation:
Magnetic force on a proton is $\text{Fm}=\text{qv}\text{B}\sin(\theta).$
A proton moving parallel or antiparallel to a magnetic field does not experience any force.
Hence, the proton does not get deflected while moving through a magnetic field region.
