a. No force b. Downward c. Upward d. Into the page/screen e. To the left f. To the left

Work Step by Step

Use the right hand-rule, as described on page 566, to calculate the direction of the force on a positively -charged particle. Since this charge is negative, the answer we want is OPPOSITE to the result given by the right-hand rule. (Some instructors advocate the use of a “left-hand rule” for negative charges, which also works.)
