We worked on understanding the Right Hand Rule for forces on moving charged particles and electric currents today. I'm hoping that you are fairly comfortable with them now. Of course, we will be using them in our work, so we can really become adept at using the RHR! Can you figure out the force experienced by the negative ion at the moment it enters the magnetic field shown in the diagram above and on the left? How about the direction of the force felt by the conventional current in the rightward-directed magnetic field shown above on the right?
