If a positive charge is placed at P. Such that it is stationary it would then

a) Move in a circular path
b) Move in a parabolic path
c) Move in the direction perpendicular to the field
d) Remain stationary

What do you think and why?
 
Im not sure I am kinda a noob at this
 
This is why i need help
 
The rules of this forum state that you must show some effort in solving your problem before you receive help. You must have some idea, consult your notes / text
 
man, i have too hand this in tomorrow and I am at risk of failing can you cut a guy a break

As I said in your other thread, I will not do your work for you; but if you show a little effort you will have the answer to your question. Now, what is the expression for the force experienced by a charged particle in a magnetic field?
 
Hootenanny does the magnitude of the current depend on the strength of the magnet.

P.S because weave formed such a close friendship over these past hours do you think you might be able to answer my other question... pleaseeeeee
