Question

PLEASE HELP! 17 points! Use the right-hand rule for magnetic force to determine the charge on the moving particle. This is a _____ charge.

Answer 1

Answer: Positive Charge

Answer 2

negative

Explanation:

When using the Right-Hand Rules, it is important to remember that the rules assume charges move in a conventional current (the hypthetical flow of positive charges). In order to apply either Right-Hand Rule to a moving negative charge, the velocity (v) of that charge must be reversed--to represent the analogous conventional current.

The opposite charge is a negative charge.
