Problem

An electron (charge q=−1.6×10−19 Cq=-1.6\times10^{-19}\,\text{C}) is projected with velocity v⃗=(4i^−6j^)×106 m s−1\vec v=(4\hat i-6\hat j)\times10^{6}\,\text{m s}^{-1} into a uniform magnetic field B⃗=0.20 k^ T\vec B=0.20\,\hat k\,\text{T}. a. (i) Calculate the magnitude of the magnetic force acting on the electron. b. (ii) Write the force in unit-vector form, indicating its direction with respect to the coordinate axes.
