If an electron is placed at a distance from origin where direction of electic field is along -ve y axis and direction of magnetic field is along -ve z axis. If the velocity of the electron is perpendicular to the electric field then find the displacement of the electron along y axis.

Let us take axes as shown in
According to the right handed system, the z-exis is
upward in the figure and hence the magnetic field
is shown downwards. At any time, the velocity of the
electron may be written as
μ→=uxi→+uyj→.
The electric and magnetic fields may be written as
E→=−Ej→
and B→=−Bk→,
respectively . The force on the electron is
F→=−e(E→+u→XB→)
=eEJ→+eB(uyi→−uxJ→).
Thus, Fx=euyB,
and Fy=e(E−uxB).
The components of the acceleration are
ax=duxdt=eBmuy
and ay=duydt=em(E−uxB).
we have,
d2uydt2=−eBm(dux)(dt)
