An electron is moving along the positive $x$-axis. To make it move in an anticlockwise circular path in the $x-y$ plane,a magnetic field must be applied:

  • A
    Along the positive $y$-axis
  • B
    Along the positive $z$-axis
  • C
    Along the negative $y$-axis
  • D
    Along the negative $z$-axis
