  1. A sketch of the physical situation with all given physical quantities clearly labeled. If the description above consists of an initial and final state, both of these states should be represented in your sketch.
  2. Draw a force diagram showing all of the forces exerted on the electron.
  3. Determine the magnitude and direction of the B-field such that the electron travels in a perfectly straight line. Clearly show all steps, starting from generalized equations. Explain your mathematical work in words. Your explanation should cover both what you did and the thought process behind why you did that.
  4. Evaluate your answer to determine whether it is reasonable or not. Consider all aspects of your answer (the numerical value, sign, and units) in your evaluation.

Make sure the questions are answer from 1-4 and its label. 

In 1 make sure the physical situation is sketch

In 2 make sure you draw the force diagram and label
