MCQ
Two statements are given-one labelled Assertion $(A)$ and the other labelled Reason $(R)$. Select the correct answer to these questions from the codes $(a), (b), (c)$ and $(d)$ as given below.
Assertion $(A):$ The kinetic energy of a charged particle moving in a uniform magnetic field does not change.
Reason $(R):$ In a uniform magnetic field no force acts on the charge particle.
  • A
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true and $R$ is the correct explanation of $A.$
  • B
    Both $A$ and $R$ are true but $R$ is $\text{NOT}$ the correct explanation of $A.$
  • $A$ is true but $R$ is false.
  • D
    $A$ is false and $R$ is also false.

Answer

Correct option: C.
$A$ is true but $R$ is false.

When a charged particle is moving in a uniform magnetic field, it experiences a force in a direction perpendicular to its direction of motion. Due to which the speed of the charged particle remains unchanged and hence its kinetic energy remains same.
