AIPMT PRELIMS 2002 Physics Lorentz Force MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-conceptual-Medium-Class 12

A charge 'q' moves in a region where electric field and magnetic field both exist, then force on it is :-

A

q(𝐯 × 𝐁)

B

q𝐄 + q(𝐯 × 𝐁)

C

q𝐄 + q(𝐁 × 𝐯)

D

q𝐁 + q(𝐄 × 𝐯)

Correct Answer

Option B

Detailed Explanation
