Question
An electron beam enters a magnetic field at right angles to it as shown in the Figure.
The direction of force acting on the electron beam will be:
to the left
to the right
into the page
out of the page
Solution
into the page
Using Fleming's left-hand rule, we find that the direction of force acting on the electron beam will be into the page.
