Find: The vector expression for the force on
the electron. This solves both part 1 and part

We will go through two methods of doing
the problem.
The rst is more mathematically oriented
and the second uses more of a reasoning argu-
ment.
Method 1: The force acting on a charge q
with velocity v in the presence of an external

A 5.7 m wire carries a current of 7.0 A toward
the +x direction. A magnetic force of 4.2
10

b) What is its direction?
1. None of these
2. z direction
3. +x direction
4. y direction
5. +z direction correct
6. +y direction
7. x direction
Explanation:
Apply right-hand rule; force directed out of
the palm of the hand, ngers in the direction
of the eld, thumb in the direction of the
current.
Palm faces in the negative y direction,
thumb points in the positive x direction, so
the ngers point in the +z direction.
