Why is Force perpendicular to the velocity and magnetic field ?
I know it's a cross product whose magnitude of force is given by
𝐹⃗=𝑞 𝑢⃗×𝐵⃗
but why is that ? I mean when an electrically charged particle with initially velocity perpendicular to electric field moves in direction of field lines why isn't it moving in direction of magnetic field ?
When i am searching google for that answer [1]:

it's giving me some answer which is not suitable for a high school student ?
