Situations in which an electron will be affected by an external electric field but will not be affected by an external magnetic field
a ) When an electron is stationary in the electric field and magnetic field , he will be affected by electric field but not by magnetic field. Magnetic field can exert force only on mobile charges.
b ) When the electron is moving parallel to electric field and magnetic field . In this case also electric field will exert force on electron but magnetic field field will not exert force on electrons . Magnetic field can exert force only on the perpendicular component of the velocity of charged particles.
Situations when electron is affected by an external magnetic field but not by an external electric field
There is no such situation in which electric field will not affect an electron . It will always affect an electron .
Diagnostic radiology include the use of non-invasive imaging scans to diagnose a patient.
The voltages used in diagnostic tubes range from roughly 20 kV to 150 kV and thus the highest energies of the X-ray photons range from roughly 20 keV to 150 keV.
The tests and equipment used sometimes involves low doses of radiation to create highly detailed images of an area.
