Question 5 • Physics
The magnetic force on a moving charge has magnitude F = |q|vB sin θ, where q is the charge, v is its speed, B is the magnetic field strength, and θ is the angle between the velocity and the field. The sine accounts for the part of the motion perpendicular to the magnetic field. Therefore, the correct choice is “F = |qvB sin θ|.”
