contents We investigate the total scattering cross section ($σ$), differential cross section ($\frac{dσ}{dQ^2}$), the longitudinal ($A_L(E_e,Q^2)$) and perpendicular ($A_P(E_e,Q^2)$) spin asymmetries of the polarized target proton, as well as the longitudinal ($P_L(E_e,Q^2)$), perpendicular ($P_P(E_e,Q^2)$), and transverse ($P_T(E_e,Q^2)$) polarization components of the final neutron, in the weak charged current induced electron-proton scattering relevant to the experiments being performed at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (JLab) and Mainz Microtron (MAMI). The analysis is performed assuming time-reversal (T) invariance as well as without assuming T invariance, allowing for a nonvanishing transverse polarization component of the final nucleon, perpendicular to the production plane. Numerical results are presented for all observables, and their sensitivities to the axial vector and weak electric form factors are examined. This study may be useful in the neutrino oscillation experiments to provide an alternative constrain on the parameterization of axial vector form factor, which currently has large uncertainties.
