Easier Right hand rule: Thumb points with the direction of velocity or current, the rest of fingers point with the direction of the magnetic field. Your palm will point with the direction of force (downward in this case.) [:))]
I find it easier to use my thumb for the velocity, my other four fingers for the direction of the magnetic field and whatever way my palm is facing is the direction of the force
@igankyoumaybe no, you may learn this in college fundamental physics courses, this is class you take after you have had two or three calculus classes. Now an advanced placement class in some high schools may offer this level of physics but most dont, I know my high school didnt even for people that were really good in calc.
i think this is wrong cuz thumb is ur velocity, and inderx finger is the magnetic field, and middle finger is the froce, so if we do this question according to this then our force willl go up not down
Sorry didn't have space. But if any want to comment on this or prove me wrong you can. What I determine is that the direction of the force will go up. So as you see the screen, it would appear the force would go away from you or towards the ceiling.
I believe using the right hand rule with the thumb representing the direction of velocity, your fingers as the direction of the magnetic field (magnetic field lines) and the force direction coming out of the palm of your hand would be different from the direction of the force which you determined was coming towards us. The right hand rule applies to an electron but when you use a proton, the direction of the force is determined by using your left hand or by using the back of your hand.
what i find scary is that despite the fact that your set is SYMMETRIC to both sides of a plane (defined by the magnetic field arrows and the initial velocity), the force is produced perpendicularly to the plane in one direction, in a very ASYMMETRIC way. how the hell can that happen??
it's the only language for physics we have and I can tell you that Salman makes this very clear if you understand basic vectors otherwise it's like trying to make a sandwich without bread!! tip, 'go buy some bread!'
No you're not dumb ellieuk. you are talking about Flemings left hand rule and that is the one to use for a force on a wire, ie. the motor effect. but Flemings rules were intended for use with conventional current. contd.
Hi.. either i am being totally dumb.. but shouldn't you use the left hand rule? The proton is positive, therefore using conventional current. Thumb = force, index = field, and second = current. Using left hand rule, index fingre points out the page, second finger to the right, and force down...?
That's right. There are several interpretation of this rule. In fact, they all show the same. I use the left hand rule, where magnetic field points into my open hand, all for fingers=the direction of current or positive charge, thumb=Lorentz force
No you're not dumb ellieuk. you are talking about Flemings left hand rule and that is the one to use for a force on a wire, ie. the motor effect. but Flemings rules were intended for use with conventional current. contd.
Force is the cross product of the velocity and the magnetic field and is perpendicular to both of them. This comes from the definition of the cross product.
ouch !

I am confused to why you used right hand rule and nt the left hand rule. As it seems to me, left hand rule works just as fine.

@asetenta But it's not symmetric- the vectors are moving out at us, the south ends go behind the plane of he screen and the north in front.

@asetenta sin/cosine = tangent, at 45 degrees or pi/4 radians everyone is equal on the plane.

I thought it was electrons that travelled through the magnetic field... Unless it's a stripped H atom? I'm confused?

@giriisindahouse he just say for electron, you can still use Fleming's left hand rule. only that the force you get must be fliped 180degree.

Who cares if your hand is brown in real life. With the colors you had in your screen, a bright blue color would've popped best.
