An electron gun res electrons into a magnetic eld directed straight downward. Find the direction of the force exerted by the eld on an electron for each of the following directions of the electrons velocity: (a) horizontal and due north; (b) horizontal and 30west of north; (c)due north, but at 30 below the horizontal; (d) straight upward. (Remember that an electron has a negative charge.)

Question
In Figure P19.46, the current in the long, straight wire is I1 5.00 A, and the wire lies in the plane of the rectangular loop, which carries 10.0 A. The dimensions shown are c 0.100 m, a 0.150 m, and 0.450 m. Find the magnitude and direction of the net force exerted by the magnetic eld due to the straight wire on the loop.
Solution
The first step in solving 19 problem number 46 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: In Figure P19.46, the current in the long, straight wire is I1 5.00 A, and the wire lies in the plane of the rectangular loop, which carries 10.0 A. The dimensions shown are c 0.100 m, a 0.150 m, and 0.450 m. Find the magnitude and direction of the net force exerted by the magnetic eld due to the straight wire on the loop.
From the textbook chapter Magnetism you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
