Given below are two statements : One is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R).
Assertion (A) : In an uniform magnetic field, speed and energy remains the same for a moving charged particle.
Reason (R) : Moving charged particle experiences magnetic force perpendicular to its direction of motion.
Solution
<p>Magnetic force $\overrightarrow F \bot \overrightarrow v$</p>
<p>$\Rightarrow {W_b} = 0$</p>
<p>$\Rightarrow \Delta KE = 0$ and speed remains constant.</p>
