A particle with positive charge q = 9.61 10-19 C moves with a velocity
v
= (4î + 2ĵ − k) m/s through a region where both a uniform magnetic field and a uniform electric field exist.
(a)
Calculate the total force on the moving particle, taking
B
= (5î + 2ĵ + k) T and
E
= (5î − ĵ − 2k) V/m. (Give your answers in N for each component.)
Fx =

Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect.

The force will be the sum of the force due to the electric field and the force due to the magnetic field. N
Fy =
N
Fz =

Incorrect: Your answer is incorrect.

How does the magnetic force depend on the velocity of the charge? N
(b)
What angle does the force vector make with the positive x-axis? (Give your answer in degrees counterclockwise from the +x-axis.)
