A group of particles is traveling in a magnetic field of unknown magnitude and direction. You observe that a proton moving at 1.20 km/s in the +x-direction experiences a force of 2.06×10−16 N in the +y-direction, and an electron moving at 4.40 km/s in the −z-direction experiences a force of 8.40×10−16 N in the +y-direction.
Part A: What is the magnitude of the magnetic field?
Park 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 3.70 km/s ?
Part D: What is the direction of this the magnetic force? (in the xz -plane)
