An electron, moving west, enters a magnetic field of a certain strength. Because of this field the electron curves upward. What is the direction of the magnetic field?

Towards the west.

Explanation:

The direction of a magnetic field lines is the direction north end of a compass needle points. The magnetic field exert force on positive charge.

Using the magnetic rule,which indicate that in order to find the direction of magnetic force on a moving charge, the thumb of the right hand point in the direction of force, the index finger in the direction of velocity charge and the middle finger in the direction of magnetic field.

According to the right hand rule, the electron moving moving west which is the thumb, the direction of the electron is west which is the middle finger and it is upward
