Hence, It will be a straight line path. ... That is because the force an electric field puts on a charge is in the same direction as the electric field. In contrast, a the force put on a moving charge by a magnetic field is perpendicular to the movement and the magnetic field

A charged particle enters and electric field in the direction of electric field, the nature of the path will be a straight line.

Explanation:

  1. When a charge is present in an electric field, it experiences a force that is either in or against the field's direction, depending on the nature of the charge.
  2. Because charge enters the electric field in the direction of motion, it will feel force in the opposite direction.
  3. There will be acceleration or retardation in the direction of motion in either situation. As a result, the journey will be in a straight line.
