The diagram shows a negative charge moving in a magnetic field. In which direction is the magnetic force acting on the charge? Right, left, into the screen, or out of the screen

The diagram shows a negative charge moving in a magnetic field In which direction is the magnetic force acting on the charge Right left into the screen or out o class=

Respuesta :

its b on edge \(-u-)/

Answer:

By right hand rule direction of force will be towards left

Explanation:

Here we know that force due to magnetic field on moving charge is given by

[tex]F = q(\vec v \times \vec B)[/tex]

here as we can see the figure

v = velocity of charge coming out of the plane

B = magnetic field vertically downwards

q = negative charge

so from above equation of force we will have

[tex]F = (-q)[v(\hat k) \times B(-\hat j)][/tex]

[tex]F = -(qvB)\hat i[/tex]

so direction of force will be towards left
