(LUS) Q17) The negative charge moves from point B toward A. The direction of the magnetie force on the particle is towards: A) OUT OF THE SCREEN B) LEFT C) RIGHT D) INTO THE SCREEN E) NONE

## Step 1<br />The problem involves the concept of magnetic fields and their interaction with charged particles. According to the right-hand rule, the direction of the magnetic force on a moving charged particle is perpendicular to both the velocity of the particle and the magnetic field.<br /><br />## Step 2<br />In this case, the negative charge is moving from point B towards point A. The direction of the magnetic force on this negatively charged particle will be opposite to the direction of its motion.<br /><br />## Step 3<br />Given the options, the direction of the magnetic force on the negatively charged particle would be towards the left.
