A charged particle in motion in a magnetic field experiences a force at right angles to its velocity and the Magnetic field intensity, i.e.
\(\vec F=q(\vec v \times \vec B)\)
F = qvB sin θ
Calculation:
Given:
The direction of magnetic field B and the velocity of the electron is in the same direction, therefore the angle between them is 0°.
F = qvB sin θ
F = qvB sin 0 = 0
As the force acting is zero, therefore the electron will continue to move in the same direction with the same velocity.
