7. A proton with a mass of 1.67 x 10^-27kg is moving horizontally eastward at 9.4 x 10^4 m/s as it enters a magnetic field of strength 1.8T. The field is directed vertically upward.

a) Calculate the magnitude and direction of the magnitude force on the proton.

b) What is the centripetal acceleration on the proton?

c) What is the radius of the circular path the proton travels in? Assuming it starts at a location of (0,0,0), sketch the path the proton moves in, labelling maximum x-,y-,and z- locations the respective velocity and magnetic force directions. (Note: let positive x-,y-,and z- directions be east, north, and upwards, respectively).
