A particle has a charge of q = +5.6 µC and is located at the origin. As the drawing shows, an electric field of Ex = +232 N/C exists along the +x axis. A magnetic field also exists, and its x and y components are Bx = +1.5 T and By = +1.2 T. Calculate the force (magnitude and direction) exerted on the particle by each of the three fields when it is (a) stationary, (b) moving along the +x axis at a speed of 345 m/s, and (c) moving along the +z axis at a speed of 345 m/s. +2 Ex B +y +x In this problem you will have 3 answers for each part. The three forces you will calculate are the electric force, x-component of the magnetic force, and y-component of the magnetic force. Make sure to provide the units and direction of the force (Force is a vector so we must always provide units!)
