In a lab, identical charged particles enter the same uniform magnetic field region. Trial 1: particle velocity is straight east; its path curves. Trial 2: particle velocity is straight north; its path curves the opposite way. Trial 3: particle velocity is straight upward (parallel to the magnetic field direction shown by a field probe); its path stays straight. Which claim is best supported by the evidence?
