उत्तर
When a charged particle having charge q moves inside a magnetic field `vecB` with velocity `vecV`, it experiences a force
`vecF =q(vecV ×vecB )`
When `vecV` is perpendicular to `vecB`
The force `vecF` on the charged particle acts as the centripetal force and makes it move along a circular path.
The point charge travels in the plane perpendicular to both `vecV` and `vecB`.
When the component of velocity of the charge particle is parallel to the direction of the force of the electric field, then the force experienced due to that component will be zero, because
F=qvBsin0°=0, and particle will move in a straight line. Also, the force experienced by the component perpendicular to `vecB` moves the particle in a circular path. The combined effect of both the components will move the particle in a helical path.

A current i is passed through a silver strip of width d and area of cross-section A. The number of free electrons per unit volume is n. (a) Find the drift velocity v of the electrons. (b) If a magnetic field B exists in the region, as shown in the figure, what is the average magnetic force on the free electrons? (c) Due to the magnetic force, the free electrons get accumulated on one side of the conductor along its length. This produces a transverse electric field in the conductor, which opposes the magnetic force on the electrons. Find the magnitude of the electric field which will stop further accumulation of electrons. (d) What will be the potential difference developed across the width of the conductor due to the electron-accumulation? The appearance of a transverse emf, when a current-carrying wire is placed in a magnetic field, is called Hall effect.
