A positively charged particle (+q) is at rest in the plane between two fixed bar

Question

A positively charged particle (+q) is at rest in the plane between two fixed bar magnets as shown. The magnet on the right is 3 times as strong as the magnet on the left. Which choice below best represents the direction of the results magnetic force exerted by the magnets on the charge?

Explanation / Answer

In the Young and Freedman physics book, it states on page 919 that "a charged particle at rest experiences no magnetic force". My assumption is that zero is the answer your looking for.
