A straight conductor carrying a conventional current I I\,I is placed along the yyy-axis in a region of a uniform magnetic field BBB, as shown in the diagram.
The current flows in the +y+y+y direction, and the magnetic field is oriented in the −x-x−x direction.
What is the direction of the magnetic force acting on the conductor?
Along the +z+z+z direction (out of the page)
Along the −z-z−z direction (into the page)
Along the +x+x+x direction
Along the −y-y−y direction
