An electron (charge $q$ $C$) enters a magnetic field of $B$ $Wb/m^2$ with a velocity of $v$ $m/s$ in the same direction as that of the field. The force on the electron is:

  • A
    $Bqv$ $N$ in the direction of the magnetic field
  • B
    $Bqv$ dynes in the direction of the magnetic field
  • C
    $Bqv$ $N$ at right angles to the direction of the magnetic field
  • D
    Zero
