When a moving charge is near a magnetic field, it experiences a force. The magnetic field has the ability to attract or repel charge in a magnetic field, and thus, the moving charge will experience a force on it

Option A, a force

Step-by-step explanation:

These charged particle do not change their speed.

Hence, option A is correct
