Expert Solution
Step 1
(a) The magnetic field points out of the plane of the page and the velocity vector points upwards. For a positive charge, if the fore finger points in the direction of the velocity vector and the middle finger points in the direction of the magnetic field then the thumb points in the direction of the magnetic force.
The given charge is negative. Thus, the magnetic force points towards left.
Step 2
(b) the charge is deflected towards the magnetic force. Thus, it traces a circular path in the anti-clockwise direction.
