Explanation:
The current carrying wire will exert a definite Magnetic Field Intensity at the place of motion of the charge. and any moving charge in an external magnetic field is going to experience a force perpendicular to its velocity vector and magnetic field vector.
Hence the charge will be deflected. The direction of deflection will depend upon the direction of current in the wire.
