A wire carrying no current is kept horizontally and is subjected to a magnetic field from bottom to top. In which direction will the wire experience a force?

A wire carries a current downward and is placed in a magnetic field that points directly out of the page. What is the direction of the magnetic force on the wire?a.To the rightb.To the leftc.Downwardd.Upward

The magnetic field lines due to a straight current carrying wire are shown in figure. The direction of current in wire is upwards. The magnetic field is weakest at point

A vertical wire carries a current upward. The magnetic field at north of the wire will be directed.

A wire with a current of 20mA is in a magnetic field with strength 0.6T. If the current points in the negative y direction (downward) and the magnetic field points in the positive x direction (right), what is the size and direction of the force the wire experiences.
