An electron $(e^-)$ is moving parallel to a long current-carrying wire as shown in the figure. Calculate the magnetic force acting on the electron. (Given: $I = 10 \ A$,$v = 10^5 \ m/s$,$r = 4 \ cm = 0.04 \ m$)

  • A
    $0.4 \times 10^{-18} \ N$
  • B
    $0.8 \times 10^{-18} \ N$
  • C
    $0.8 \times 10^{-16} \ N$
  • D
    $1.6 \times 10^{-18} \ N$
