In todays tutorial, what would be the force on a charged particle on the sides rather than the top or bottom? Would the magnetic field and velocity be parallel so zero force?
If the flux lines at the lines were really perpendicular to the loop, there would be zero force. However, for a solenoid, the flux lines are actually flaring out from the end of the solenoid in 3 dimensions. So at the side of the loop, is to the right (say), but is coming out of the page (or in, depending on which side).
