Question

Determine the direction of the force (if any) that will act on the charge in each of the following situations. A negative charge within an electric field that points to the left. A positive charge within an electric field that points upward. A negative charge moving upward in a magnetic field that points out of the screen. A positive charge moving out of the screen in a magnetic field that points to the left. A negative charge moving downward in an electric field that points into the screen. A negative charge moving to the left in a magnetic field that points to the left. upward to the left downward out of the screen into the screen zero force to the right

Explanation / Answer

force(F = -q*E) on negatively charged particle is always opposite to the electric field,and on the positive charged particle ,the force is in the direction of the field (F = q*E)

1) to the right

2) upward

3) to the right (by using Flemings right hand rule)

4) downward ( by using Flemings legt hand rule)

5) Zero force

6) Zero force
