If a particle moves in a circular path in clockwise direction after entering in to a downward vertical magnetic field. The charge on the particle is ?

positive or negative

A charge particle be it an electron or a proton would move along a circular path in uniform magnetic field. However the direction of motion would depend upon the magnitude of charge as positive charge would move in an anti-clockwise orbit while a negative charge would move in a clockwise orbit.
