Question

Please help to clearly explain the solution to this problem on a separate paper. Thank you very much :)

The diagrams at right show a long, straight wire through which there is a current I. (Both a side view and a top view of the wire are shown.) Indicate the direction of the magnetic field at point A on both views of the wire. A positively charged particle is located near a current-carrying wire. Determine the direction of the magnetic force on the particle if it is moving as described in each of the four diagrams below. If the magnetic force on the particle has zero magnitude, indicate that explicitly.

Explanation / Answer

a)In side view the direction of magnetic field is in to the plane

InTop view the direction of magnetic field is vertically upwards
