Explanation / Answer

It would probably help if you had the diagram. However, because Ijust dealt with this problem m'self I know how it looks. The easiest way to do this is use your index finger to point in thedirection of current, use the other three fingers on the same handto point in the direction of the magnetic field, also keep themstraight(most just use the middle finger) (IE it is always pointingtoward you) and your thumb with show you the direction of theforce. So for Part A, Point your index finger toward the left, your middle finger towardyourself and your thumb should be pointing upwards. Thus making theanswer; +y. For Part B, When you try this one, you'll see if is physically impossible(unless you break off your fingers) to point away from yourselfwith your index and point directly at yourself with your middlefinger (keeping in mind you have to keep them straight). Thusmaking the answer; 0. For Part C, Point your index upwards, middle toward you. thumb should bepointing to the right. (+x) Giving that much should be sufficient, I imagine you will be ableto solve the rest yourself, Good luck!
