The figure shows three situations when an electron with velocity $\vec v$ travels through a nuniform magnetic field $\vec B$ . In each case, what is the direction of magnetic force on the electron?

A

positive $z-$ axis, negative $x-$ axis, positive $y-$ axis

B

negative $z-$ axis, negative $x-$ axis and zero

C

positive $z-$ axis, positive $y-$ axis and zero

D

negative $z-$ axis, positive $x-$ axis and zero

Solution

Force on electron= $q\left( {\vec v \times \vec B} \right) = e\left( {\vec B \times \vec v} \right)$
