A beam of electrons can be thought of as an electric current whose direction is opposite the direction of the moving electrons. Suppose you find that an electron beam coming towards you horizontally through a magnetic field gets deflected towards your right. What is the direction of the magnetic field that bends the beam?

An electric current is passed through a copper wire by connecting its ends to a battery. It is kept between the poles of a strong horseshoe magnet. There is a force on the wire due to the magnet. If you interchange the connections to the positive and negative terminals of the battery, and also the positions of the north and south poles of the magnet, what will be the change in the force on the wire due to the magnet?
