Force on current-carrying wire

A wire in a parallel-plate accelerator carries current \(2.25\,\text{A}\) perpendicular to a \(0.35\,\text{T}\) magnetic field. Length in the field is \(0.7\,\text{m}\). Calculate the force. Enter the numerical result and choose the interpretation that matches the field physics.
