$A$ horizontal conductor is oriented north-south and carries some current. $A$ positively charged particle located vertically above it and having a velocity directed northward experiences an upward force. What is the direction of the force if this charged particle were located to the east of the conductor and had a velocity directed towards the conductor?

  • A
    North
  • B
    South
  • C
    Up
