5. We assume the current flows in the

+

x direction and the particle is at some distance d in the

+

y direction

(away from the wire). Then, the magnetic field at the location of the charge q is



B =

µ

0

i

2πd

ˆ

k .

Thus,



F = q

B =

iq

.

(a) In this situation, 

v = v(

ˆj) (where v is the speed and is a positive value). Also, the problem

specifies q > 0. Thus,



F =

µ

0

iqv

2πd



(

ˆj) × ˆk



=

iqv

(ˆi) ,

which tells us that 

F

q

has a magnitude of µ

0

iqv/2πd and is in the direction opposite to that of the

current flow.

(b) Now the direction 

v is reversed, and we obtain 

F = +µ

0

iqvˆi/2πd. The magnitude is identical to

that found in part (a), but the direction of the force is now in the same direction as that of the
current flow.
