A group of particles is traveling in a magnetic field of unknown magnitude and direction. You observe that a proton moving at 1.60 km/s in the +x-direction experiences a force of 2.10×10−16 N in the +y-direction, and an electron moving at 4.40 km/s in the −z-direction experiences a force of 8.30×10−16 N in the +y-direction.
What is the magnitude of the magnetic field?
What is the direction of the magnetic field? (in the xz-plane) θ=
What is the magnitude of the magnetic force on an electron moving in the −y-direction at 3.30 km/s ?
What is the direction of this the magnetic force? (in the xz-plane) θ=
