A Long Straight Wire on the Z-Axis Carries a Current

Question 146

Multiple Choice

A long straight wire on the z-axis carries a current of 8.0 A in the +z direction (out of the paper) .A circular loop of radius 10 cm lies in the xy-plane and carries a 3.0-A current,as shown in the figure.Point P,at the center of the loop,is 25 cm from the z-axis.An electron is projected from P with a velocity of 3.0 × 106 m/s in the -x direction.What is the y component of the magnetic force on the electron?
