A current is flowing along a straight wire in the direction shown. There is a uniform magnetic field present (direction not given). Based on the given information, which of these could be true? Select all that apply.     1. There must be a force on the wire, and the force might be pointed in the A direction.   2. There must be a force on the wire, and the force might be pointed in the B direction.    3.There will never be a force on the wire.   4.There may or may not be a force on the wire, but the force could not be pointed in the A direction.   5. There may or may not be a force on the wire, but the force could not be pointed in the B direction.   6. There may or may not be a force on the wire, but the force could not be pointed in the C direction.   7. There may or may not be a force on the wire, but the force could not be pointed in the D direction.   8. There may or may not be a force on the wire, but the force could not be pointed in the E direction.   9.
