Discussion
True or false: the magnetic force can change the speed of a charged particle.
Answer: D
The force is always perpendicular to the velocity, so it contributes nothing to the work integral and the kinetic energy is constant. Only the electric part of the Lorentz force, or a changing magnetic field through the induced electric field, can alter a particle's energy.
