[SADT] The parametric equations for the motion of a charged particle released from rest in electric and magnetic fields at right angles to each other take the forms x = a(0 – sine),y = a(1 - cose). Show that %3D the tangent to the curve has slope cot(5). Use this result at a few calculated values of x and y to sketch the form of the particle's trajectory.
