Question

A wire carries a current I as shown in the figure. Charged particle 1 is further away from the wire than charged particle 2. They both move in the directions indicated. The magnetic forces on the charges are equal (in magnitude and direction) and the velocities of the charges are equal. What conclusion can be drawn? Both charges have the same sign and the magnitude of charge 1 Is greater than the magnitude of charge 2. The charges have opposite sign and the magnitude of charge 1 is greater than the magnitude of charge 2. Both charges have the same magnitude and sign The charges have opposite sign and the magnitude of charge 1 is smaller than the magnitude of charge 2. Both charges have the same sign and the magnitude of charge 1 is smaller than the magnitude of charge 2.
