An electron (mass \(9\times10^{-31}~\text{kg}\) and charge \(1.6\times10^{-19}~\text C\)) moving with speed \(c/100\) (\(c\)=speed of light) is injected into a magnetic field \(\vec B\) of magnitude \(9\times10^{-4}~\text{T}\) perpendicular to its direction of motion. We wish to apply an uniform electric field \(\vec E\) together with the magnetic field so that the electron does not deflect from its path. Then (speed of light \(c=3\times10^8~\text{ms}^{-1}\))
1. \(\vec E\) is parallel to \(\vec B\) and its magnitude is \(27\times10^{2}~\text{V m}^{-1}\)
2. \(\vec E\) is parallel to \(\vec B\) and its magnitude is \(27\times10^{4}~\text{V m}^{-1}\)
3. \(\vec E\) is perpendicular to \(\vec B\) and its magnitude is \(27\times10^{4}~\text{V m}^{-1}\)
4. \(\vec E\) is perpendicular to \(\vec B\) and its magnitude is \(27\times10^{2}~\text{V m}^{-1}\)

A uniform electric field and a uniform magnetic field are acting along the same direction in a certain region. If an electron is projected in the region such that its velocity is pointed along the direction of fields, then the electron:
1. will turn towards right of direction of motion
2. will turn towards left of direction of motion
3. speed will decrease
4. speed will increase
