Answer #1

When a charged particle travelling at a given speed enters perpendicular to a magnetic field, the magnitude of speed remains constant. But, the direction of speed or motion constantly changes as the particle will move in a circular path in a magnetic field. Therefore, the velocity of particle changes due to the continuous change in direction, eventhough its magnitude does not change.

So, the property of particle which changes while in magnetic field is its velocity.
