A long straight wire AB carries a current of 4A. A proton P travels at 4x10^6ms^-1 parallel to the wire, 0.2m from it and in a direction opposite to the current as shown in figure. Calculate the force which the magnetic field of current exerts on the proton. Also specify the direction of the force.
