Question

At the equator, near the surface of Earth, the magnetic field is approximately 41.0 ?T northward and the electric field is about 100 N/C downward in fair weather. Find the gravitational, electric, and magnetic forces on an electron with instantaneous velocity of 6.00  106 m/s directed to the east in this environment.

Magnetic???N

Expert Solution
Step 1

We have been given that

Magnetic field B = 41 T Northward

Electric field E = 100 N/C

and

Instantaneous Velocity of an electron v = 6.00 × 106 m/s
