To find the direction of the force \( \vec{F} \) acting on a charged particle moving in a magnetic field, we can use the expression \( \vec{F} = q (\vec{v} \times \vec{B}) \). Here’s a step-by-step solution: ### Step 1: Identify the vectors - The velocity vector \( \vec{v} \) of the particle is along the y-axis. We can represent this as: \[ \vec{v} = v \hat{j} \] where \( \hat{j} \) is the unit vector in the y-direction. ...
