A group of particles is traveling in a magnetic field of unknown magnitude and direction. You observe that a proton moving at 1.50 km/s in the +x-direction experiences a force of 2.06×10−16 N in the +y-direction, and an electron moving at 4.20 km/s in the −z-direction experiences a force of 8.60×10−16 N in the +y-direction.
Part A
What is the magnitude of the magnetic field?
Part B
What is the direction of the magnetic field? (in the xz-plane)
Part C
What is the magnitude of the magnetic force on an electron moving in the −y-direction at 3.50 km/s ?
Part D
What is the direction of this the magnetic force? (in the xz-plane)
