Question

the diagram shows a straight wire carrying a flow of electrons into the page. the wire is between the poles of a permanent magnet. the direction of magnetic force exerted on wire is
A. up
B. down
c. right
d. left​

Answer 1

Answer:

Perpendicular side

Explanation:

Of the flow

Answer 2

Answer:

A. Up

Explanation:

We know that the current (I) is going into the page and that the magnetic field (B) goes from the north pole of a magnet to the south pole. Knowing that and using the right-hand rule we get a magnetic force (F) that is pointing "Down". Since we are talking about a flow of electrons we need to "invert" that direction and we get the "Up" solution.
