6. Jupiter's magnetic field occupies a volume of space larger than the Sun and contains ionized particles ejected from sources including volcanoes on Io, one of Jupiter's moons. A sulfur ion (S*) in Jupiter's magnetic field has mass of 5.32 x 10-26 kg and kinetic energy 70.3 eV. (a) Find the maximum magnetic force (in N) on the ion from Jupiter's magnetic field of magnitude 4.30 x 10-4 T. (Enter the magnitude.) (b) Find the radius (in m) of the sulfur ion's circular path, assuming its velocity is perpendicular to Jupiter's magnetic field.
