If a charged particle of charge is travelling with a

If a charged particle of charge is travelling with a velocity v in a magnetic field B then the force that that charged particle feels is given by F qvx B In this case the force F is also a vector quantity since it has both a magnitude and a direction So the cross product plays an important role in physics and engineering B Now suppose that a proton with some positive charge g is traveling in the 23 plane with a velocity in the direction of 3 and that the magnetic field B is a uniform field pointing straight up in the direction perpendicular to the zy plane Then the direction of the force that the moving proten feels is in the direction the vector V jen Note make sure to use Maple notation for the vectors e g 1 2 3 This is a direction which select all that apply C is perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field is parallel to the direction of the magnetic field C is also in the 23 plane is perpendicular to the velocity of the particle Challenge worth 2 marks If we ohren this ticle for a Firmal the riniana
