A long straight current-carrying wire is at rest in a laboratory. A negatively-charged particle P outside the wire moves parallel to the current with constant velocity v relative to the laboratory.

In the reference frame of the laboratory the particle P experiences a repulsive force away from the wire.

State the nature of the force on the particle P in the reference frame of the laboratory.
