$A$ charge $q$ moves in a region where both an electric field and a magnetic field exist. The total force on it is:

  • A
    $q \overrightarrow{E} + q (\overrightarrow{v} \times \overrightarrow{B})$
  • B
    $q (\overrightarrow{v} \times \overrightarrow{B})$
  • C
    $q \overrightarrow{E} + q (\overrightarrow{B} \times \overrightarrow{v})$
  • D
    $q \overrightarrow{B} + q (\overrightarrow{E} \times \overrightarrow{v})$
