Question
Determine the direction of the force (if any) that will act on the charge in each of the following situations.
A positive charge within an electric field that points upward.
A negative charge within an electric field that points to the right.
A positive charge moving to the right in a magnetic field that points out of the screen.
A negative charge moving upward in a magnetic field that points into the screen.
A positive 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 upward.
Explanation / Answer
1)Upward force (F=qE vector equation)
2) Left
3)Down (From Flemins left hand rule)
4)Right (From Flemins left hand rule and charge is negetive so direction reverses)
5)force points out of the screen
6) no force (There should be a velocity component perpendicular to magnetic field inorder to occur a force)
