PhysicsMoving Charges and MagnetismJEE Main 2026

The charged particle moving in a uniform magnetic field of (3î+2ĵ) T has an acceleration m/s². The value of x is .

Answer: 12

Solution

The magnetic force (and hence acceleration) is always perpendicular to B, so a·B=0: 4(3)+(−x/2)(2)=0, giving x=12.
