Ch-13 Magnetic Effects of Electric Current (Question) Page231

Question 1:

 Which of the following property of a proton can change while it moves freely in a magnetic field? (There may be more than one correct answer.)

(a) mass

(b) speed

(c) velocity

(d) momentum

Answer :

 (c) and (d)

When a proton enters in a region of magnetic field, it experiences a magnetic force. As a result of the force, the path of the proton becomes circular. Hence, its velocity and momentum change.
