Question
An electron enters a magnetic field B, 0.8Tesla which is directed into the -z axis or into the page. An electron has a charge -q and a velocity of 3.0 x 106 meters per second which is directed upward, and enters the magnetic field B perpendicularly. Determine the magnitude and direction of the magnetic force acting on the electron.
