Question
In the scenarios listed below, find the direction of the force (if any) that will be exerted on the charge. A negative charge within an electric field that points upward. A positive charge within an electric field that points to the left. A negative charge moving to the left in a magnetic field that points into the screen. A positive charge moving into the screen in a magnetic field that points upward. A negative charge moving to the right in an electric field that points out of the screen. A positive charge moving downward in a magnetic field that points downward.Explanation / Answer
downward --Negative charge moves in opposite direction of the electric field , hence negative charge moves downward as electric field is upward.
Left : positive charge moves in same direction as the electric field , hence positive charge moves Left as electric field is towards left.
Upward : using right hand rule
Right : Using right hand rule
into the screen : Negative charge moves in opposite direction of the electric field
zero : since magnetic field is parallel to the direction of motion of the charge
