उत्तर
The direction of the magnetic field is vertically downward. The direction of current is from the front wall to the back wall because negatively charged electrons are moving from the back wall to the front wall. The direction of magnetic force is rightward. Hence, using Fleming’s left-hand rule, it can be concluded that the direction of the magnetic field inside the chamber is downward.
