JEE Advance - Physics (2017 - Paper 1 Offline - No. 13)

A charged particle (electron or proton) is introduced at the origin (x=0,y=0,z=0) with a given initial velocity $$\overrightarrow v .$$ A uniform electric field $$\overrightarrow E $$ and a uniform magnetic field $$\overrightarrow B $$ exist everywhere. The velocity $$\overrightarrow v ,$$ electric field $$\overrightarrow E $$ and magnetic field $$\overrightarrow B $$ are given in column $$1,2$$ and $$3,$$ respectively. The quantities $${E_0},{B_0}$$ are positive in magnitude.

In which case will the particle describe a helical path with axis along the positive $$z$$ direction?
$$\left( {{\rm I}V} \right)\left( i \right)\left( S \right)$$
$$\left( {{\rm I}{\rm I}} \right)\left( {ii} \right)\left( R \right)$$
$$\left( {{\rm I}{\rm I}{\rm I}} \right)\left( {iii} \right)\left( P \right)$$
$$\left( {{\rm I}V} \right)\left( {ii} \right)\left( R \right)$$

Explanation

The particle will describe a helical path with axis along +z direction if (i) component of net force in x-y plane provides the centripetal acceleration and (ii) the particle has a non-zero velocity and/or non-zero force along +z direction. A proton with initial velocity $$\overrightarrow v = 2{{{E_0}} \over {{B_0}}}\widehat x$$ will move in a helical path with axis along +z direction when placed in an electric field $$\overrightarrow E = {E_0}\widehat z$$ and magnetic field $$\overrightarrow B = {B_0}\widehat z$$.
