A carbon-14 ion with a charge of +6.408x10^-19 C and a mass of 2.34x10^-26 kg is sent through a mass spectrometer and hits a detector at a point 10.0 cm to the left of where the beam leaves the velocity selector. The velocity selector and the detector are both in a region of magentic field of strength 0.500 T. What is the direction of the magnetic field and what is the speed of the particle after it leaves the velocity selector?

Please also explain and show the steps you used to get there/the physics behind why/how you got to the answer to help me better understand. Thank you soo much. Also, the work and the explanation or most important because I already have the correct answer - I'm just unsure of how to get there.
