Question
Write the expression, in a vector form, for the Lorentz magnetic force$\overrightarrow{\text{F}}$ due to a charge moving with velocity $\overrightarrow{\text{V}}$in a magnetic field $\overrightarrow{\text{B}}.$  What is the direction of the magnetic force?

Answer

$\overrightarrow{\text{F}} = \text{q}( \overrightarrow{\text{v}}\times\overrightarrow{\text{B}})$
Perpendicular to the plane formed by$\overrightarrow{\text{v}}$and $\overrightarrow{\text{B}}/\overrightarrow{\text{F}}\bot\overrightarrow{\text{v}}\text{and }\overrightarrow{\text{F}}\bot \overrightarrow{\text{B}}.$
