Homework Equations
I'm assuming there's no equation, just the right hand rule..?
The Attempt at a Solution
I think this problem asks for the right hand rule, but I'm not sure. I don't have a very good grasp of the right hand rule... I'm assuming it is dependent on the direction of the magnetic field and something else.
Please help!
