Changes

• Changed the skin color.
• Changed the font and placement of the v, B, and F labels.
• Removed the right-hand side of the equation for F.
• Removed the angle arc and label between the velocity and magnetic field vectors.
• Changed the color of the charge from red to blue.
• Changed the charge label from “+” to “−”.
• Flipped the force vector to point downward instead of upward.
