An electron is projected with uniform velocity along the axis of a current-carrying long solenoid. Which of the following is true?

  • A
    The electron path will be circular about the axis.
  • B
    The electron will be accelerated along the axis.
  • C
    The electron will experience a force at $45^{\circ}$ to the axis and hence execute a helical path.
  • D
    The electron will continue to move with uniform velocity along the axis of the solenoid.
