In the figure above, a wire (which is the oblong) is placed on a piece of paper (which is the square) in a magnetic field. If the arrow in the figure is the direction of the current through the wire and the circles indicate that the magnetic field points directly out of the paper, which way will the wire move?

Using fleming left hand rule : your thump points to the movement direction or the force direction it's the same ,, your index finger points to the magnetic field and your middle finger points to the ordinary current direction.
Note: you should make the thumb ,, the index finger and and the middle finger perpendicular on each other.
