Detailed Solution
When a charge q moves with velocity v→ inside magnetic field of strength B→, then force on charge is called magnetic Lorentz force. The magnetic Lorentz force is in the direction of vector V→ × B→.Magnetic Lorentz force F→ = q→ V→ × B→=− 2 × 10−6 2 × 2 × 106 k^= 8 N along negative z-axis
