Given
Current ,I =7 A
Distance ,D = 4 mm
Charge,Q = 8uC
Velocity, V = 200 m/s parallel to current direction.
Part A.
Magnetism/magnetic force is the force due to moving electric charges, and the nearby space to the moving charge particle, within which the magnetic force can be experienced on other particles is defined as magnetic field.
Part B
1b)
Magnetic flux density is given as
B = u 0 I 2 π R B = 2 10 7 7 4 10 3 = 3.5 10 4   T e s l a
2b)Now force is
F = q V B sin ( A )
Where A is angle between B and V direction
A = 90 F = 8 10 6 200 3.5 10 4 = 5600 10 10 F = 0.56   u N
