Question

What is the direction of the magnetic force on a positive charge and a negative charge that moves as shown in each case shown? Be clear for each.

X X XB. B B X X X x X X X Vout v. x x x B

Answer 1

Answer:-

We the magnetic force acting on an object always perpendicular to both magnetic field and velocity.

It is clear from this equation-

F = q (V×B)

Where,

q = charge on an object

V = velocity of the particle

B = magnetic field

And the direction of magnetic force doesn't depend upon the positive or negative nature of charge.

(a) the direction of magnetic force will be towards left side direction.

(b) the direction of magnetic force will be towards outward Direction.

(C) The direction of magnetic force will be towards upward direction.

(d) the direction of magnetic force will be towards left side direction.

(e) the direction of Magnetic force will be towards upward direction.
