A pellet which holds a charge of 10 coulombs is moving upwards (+Y) and driven by an electric field in the same direction with a magnitude of 50 V/m. There is a magnetic field with a magnitude of 25 Tesla’s pointing downwards (-Y). How fast does the pellet need to be going for the magnetic force to cancel the electric force?
