Both B and E should be along the direction of velocity and both B and E are mutually perpendicular and perpendicular to the direction of velocity.
NEET UG 2010 — Physics Electromagnetism
A particle having a mass of 10−2 kg carries a charge of 5×10−8C. The particle is given an initial horizontal velocity of 105 ms−1 in the presence of electric field E and magnetic field B. To keep the particle moving in a horizontal direction, it is necessary that (1) B should be perpendicular to the direction of velocity and E should be along the direction of velocity. (2) Both B and E should be along the direction of velocity. (3) Both B and E are mutually perpendicular and perpendicular to the direction of velocity. (4) B should be along the direction of velocity and E should be perpendicular to the direction of velocity. Which one of the following pairs of statements is possible?

Two point charges +2μC and -2μC are placed 10 cm apart. The electric field at the midpoint is:
A parallel plate capacitor made of circular plates is being charged such that the surface charge density on its plates is increasing at a constant rate with time. The magnetic field arising due to displacement current is :
Two identical charged conducting spheres $A$ and $B$ have their centres separated by a certain distance. Charge on each sphere is q and the force of repulsion between them is $F$. A third identical uncharged conducting sphere is brought in contact with sphere A first and then with B and finally removed from both. New force of repulsion between spheres $A$ and $B$ (Radii of $A$ and $B$ are negligible compared to the distance of separation so that for calculating force between them they can be considered as point charges) is best given as :
The electric potential at distance r from a point charge q is V = q/(4πε₀r). The electric field E is:
The current passing through the battery in the given circuit, is :
