In terms of the scientific definition of work, magnetic fields can do work, but electric fields cannot:
False
Answer:
FALSE
Explanation:
As we know that magnetic force is given by
[tex]\vec F = q(\vec v \times \vec B)[/tex]
so here magnetic force is always perpendicular to the velocity of the moving charge
so here we can say
[tex]\vec F . \vec v = 0[/tex]
so here since it is not producing any power so here rate of work done is zero which means it will not do any work
while in electrostatic force we know that
F = qE
so here force is not perpendicular to displacement or velocity so it will do work
