An electron beam projected along the positive x-axis deflects along the positive y-axis. If this deflection is caused by a magnetic field, what is the direction of the field? Can we conclude that the field is parallel to the z-axis?

An electron is moving along the positive x-axis. You want to apply a magnetic field for a short time so that the electron may reverse its direction and move parallel to the negative x-axis. This can be done by applying the magnetic field along.

A charged particle is moved along a magnetic field line. The magnetic force on the particle is

The free electrons in a conducting wire are in constant thermal motion. If such a wire, carrying no current, is placed in a magnetic field, is there a magnetic force on each free electron? Is there a magnetic force on the wire?

Two wires carrying equal currents i each, are placed perpendicular to each other, just avoiding a contact. If one wire is held fixed and the other is free to move under magnetic forces, what kind of motion will result?

If a charged particle projected in a gravity-free room deflects,

You are facing a circular wire carrying an electric current. The current is clockwise a seen by you. Is the field at the centre coming towards you or going away from you?

The torque on a current loop is zero if the angel between the positive normal and the magnetic field is either θ = 0 or θ = 180°. In which of the two orientations, the equilibrium is stable?

The net charge in a current-carrying wire is zero. Then, why does a magnetic field exert a force on it?
