An electron is moving along the positive $X$-axis. You want to apply a magnetic field for a short time so that the electron may reverse its direction and move parallel to the negative $X$-axis. This can be done by applying the magnetic field along

  • A
    $Y$-axis
  • B
    $Z$-axis
  • C
    $Y$-axis only
  • D
    Both $(A)$ and $(B)$

$A$ particle of charge $16 \times 10^{-16} \, C$ moving with velocity $10 \, ms^{-1}$ along the $x$-axis enters a region where a magnetic field of induction $\vec{B}$ is along the $y$-axis and an electric field of magnitude $10^4 \, Vm^{-1}$ is along the negative $z$-axis. If the charged particle continues moving along the $x$-axis,the magnitude of $\vec{B}$ is:

Given below are two statements. One is labelled as Assertion $(A)$ and the other is labelled as Reason $(R)$.
Assertion $(A) :$ An electron in a certain region of uniform magnetic field is moving with constant velocity in a straight line path.
Reason $(R) :$ The magnetic field in that region is along the direction of velocity of the electron.
