alleryStart learning →A proton and an electron move with equal velocity in the same magnetic field. Their forces are
ASame in direction
BBoth along the velocity
CBoth equal to zero
DOpposite in direction
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Opposite in direction
The force reverses with the sign of the charge, so the two forces point in opposite directions.
