Equal charges, one at rest, the other having a velocity of 104 m/s, are released in a uniform magnetic field. Which charge has the largest force exerted on it by the magnetic field?
a. The charge that is at rest. b. The charge that is moving, if its velocity is parallel to the magnetic field direction when it is released. c.

The charge that is moving if its velocity is perpendicular to the magnetic field direction when it is released. e. All the charges above experience equal forces when released in the same magnetic field.
