    Answer:

    a circular path

    Explanation:

    In a magnetism field if a charged particle having a charge of magnitude ” enters  such that its velocity vector V is 90° to the direction of the magnetic field “B”, then it will experience a force, called Lorentz force F

    F = V\times B

    According to the property of cross-product, the Lorentz force (F) acting on the particle will be perpendicular to the instantaneous position of the particle, making the path of the particle to be a circular path.
