A particle of mass m and charge Q moving with velocity \(v\) describes a circular path of radius R when subjected to a uniform transverse magnetic field B. The work done by the field when the particle completes one full circle is Correct Answer Zero

The work done by magnetic field in rotating a particle through one complete circle is always zero.
