A 6.70-uC particle moves through a region of space where an electric field of magnitude 1200 N/C points in the positive x direction, and a magnetic field of magnitude 1.03T points in the positive direction.If the net force acting on the particle is 6.24×10-3N in the positive x direction, find the components of the particle's velocity. Assume the particle's velocity is in the x-y plane.

A particle with electric charge is fired into a region of space where the electric field is zero. It moves in a straight line. Can you conclude that the magnetic field in that region is zero? (a) Yes, you can. (b) No; the field might be perpendicular to the particle’s velocity. (c) No; the field might be parallel to the particle’s velocity. (d) No; the particle might need to have charge of the opposite sign to have a force exerted on it. (e) No; an observation of an object with electric charge gives no information about a magnetic field.

Which one of the following statements concerning the magnetic forceon a charged particle in a magnetic field is true?

c)The magnetic force is a maximum if the particle moves parallel tothe field.
d)The magnetic force acts in the direction of motion for apositively charged particle.
e)The magnetic force depends on the component of the particle'svelocity that is perpendicular to the field.
