Question
A proton (m = 1.67 X 1027 kg, q= 1.6 X 10-19 C) enters region 1 that has crossed electric
and magnetic fields (a velocity selector). The electric field is directed downward and has a magnitude 1
X 104 N/C while the magnetic field has a magnitude 2.0 T and is directed into the paper. The proton
travels undeflected in a straight line through this region. The proton leaves the velocity selector, and
then enters region 2 where there is a magnetic field of magnitude 1 X 10-3 T directed perpendicular to
the paper. In this region, it travels in a circle as shown.
E= 1 x 104 N/C

B= 2T
