Show Answer

Solution:

Ans. Force acting on any charge of magnitude q moving with velocity v in magnetic field B is :

F=q(v×B)

It is magnetic force on charge q due to its motion in magnetic field. In this, the direction of magnetic force will be perpendicular to the plane having velocity vector and magnetic field vector.
