The figure shows three long, parallel current-carrying wires. The magnitudes of the currents are equal and their directions are indicated in the figure. Which of the arrows drawn near the wire carrying current 1 correctly indicates the direction of the magnetic force acting on that wire?Capture10.PNG

In a certain region of space, a uniform electric field is in the negative x direction. A particle with negative charge is carried from x = 60.0 cm to x = 20.0 cm. Does the electric potential energy of the charge–field increase, remain constant, decrease, or change unpredictably?
