  An electron and a proton, using parallel to each other, enter a uniform magnetic field with same velocity. The direction of magnetic field and their motion coincides (is same). How will the direction of their paths be affected when they are travelling in same direction (b) opposite direction. Justify your answer.

Answer:

                  Since they are travelling in the direction of the magnetic field, there will be no force acting on them. Hence their paths will remain the same after entering the magnetic field.
