Question

In the scenarios listed below, find the direction of the force (if any) that will be exerted on the charge. A positive charge within an electric field that points to the left. A negative charge within an electric field that points upward. A positive charge moving into the screen in a magnetic field that points upward. A negative charge moving to the left in a magnetic field that points into the screen. A positive charge moving upward in an electric field that points out of the screen. A negative charge moving to the right in a magnetic field that points to the left.

Explanation / Answer

here,

1)

for the positive charge ,

as the electric feild is towards left

the force is also towards left

2)

for the negative charge ,

as the electric feild is upwards

the force is downwards

3)

charge is positive

F = q * v X B

then force is towards left

4)

charge is negative

F = q * v XB

using right hand rule

the force is upwards
